Travelling Together: to work with Gypsy, Traveller, Roma, Showman and Boater communities to investigate routes to improve access to STEM and healthcare courses.
Gypsy, Traveller, Roma, Showman and Boater (GTRSB) communities are very poorly represented in the world of science. Only 3-4% of GTRSB populations aged 18-30 access higher education (HE) compared with 43% of 18–30-year-olds in the general population. Read more
Immune-dysregulation in chronic inflammatory muco-cutaneous disorders
This exciting PhD project provides a rare opportunity to discover novel mechanisms of immune-dysregulation in under-researched but clinically important… Read more

Risk factors and site-specific prediction tools for saprolegnia outbreaks in Scottish aquaculture (RIFE-2)
The incidences of saprolegniosis outbreaks in Scottish farms have significantly increased over the last few years. Indeed, some sites have had very high losses (50% or more) due to saprolegniosis, whereas other farms have stayed largely disease free. Read more
MSc by Research: Combatting Antifungal Resistance: Is the chromatin remodeller SWI/SNF an attractive therapeutic target?
Fungi infect billions of people around the world each year. Candida glabrata is one of the most common causes of fungal infections. Read more
Funded MSc by Research: Uncovering the Pharmacology of GPR75: a Promising G Protein-Coupled Receptor Target for Metabolic Syndrome
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), due to their cell surface expression, their tissue-selective distribution and role in amplifying signalling events make them excellent pharmacological targets, hence over 30% of current approved drugs target GPCRs (1). Read more
MSc By Research: Profiling of extracellular vesicles derived from Alzheimer’s Disease and control brains
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) transfer DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, and metabolites from donors to recipients via cell-to-cell communication. Read more
Interdisciplinary PhD Studentships Based in the Biological and Geo-Sciences (QUADRAT DTP)
Applications are invited for UKRI funded PhD studentships starting 1st October 2023. The deadline for applications is Wednesday 7th June 2023. Read more
MSc By Research: Investigating the Therapeutic Potential of Synthetic Flavonoids for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), high blood pressure in the lung, is characterized by increased pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC) in the walls of the blood vessels, raised pulmonary arterial pressure and right ventricular failure (1). Read more
