Cell Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Manchester

We have 42 Cell Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Manchester

Cell-matrix interface engineering for regenerative medicine applications and disease modelling

Dr. Mahetab Amer is seeking motivated students with backgrounds in tissue engineering, cell biology, materials science, or related fields to join her dynamic, multidisciplinary research group at the Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine, University of Manchester. Read more

Transcriptional control of vascular development

Sprouting of new capillaries from pre-existing vessels (angiogenesis) promotes the formation of almost all blood vessels during development, growth and tissue regeneration. Read more

Diagnostics for FMF patients and carrier survival in pandemics

Background. Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a rare inherited genetic disease where patients acquire a mutation on the pyrin gene leading to excessive inflammasome activation and excessive inflammation. Read more

Defining the molecular mechanisms of leukaemia chemotherapies

Chemotherapies are usually the backbone of cancer treatment for either curative or palliative patient care. Multiple therapies can be used for the same disease, with the choice of drug dependent on parameters such as the patient’s age and fitness. Read more

Ferroptosis and immunometabolism in Alzheimer’s disease

Ferroptosis, a regulated form of iron-dependent cell death driven by lipid peroxidation, has emerged as a key mechanism implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) [1,2]. Read more

The cellular response to stress: roles in disease and ageing

All living organisms need to adapt to their environment in order to survive and reproduce. They must respond to many stresses including altered oxygen levels, heat or cold, irradiation, infection and injury. Read more

Analysis of pathogen determinants recognized by the hypervariable immune receptor Dscam

Background. To mount an immune response, host organisms must first recognize the pathogen with which they are infected. The first line of defense against pathogen infection in animals is provided through the innate immune response. Read more

Mechanistic analysis of neurodevelopmental disorders caused by mutations in the gene RAC1

RAC1 is a signalling protein that regulates many cellular processes and is essential during embryonic development. We recently discovered a novel genetic disease called RAC1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (RAC1-NDD) that results from mutations in the RAC1 gene. Read more

Chaperones and the response to protein misfolding stress

Misfolded proteins are usually refolded to their functional conformations or degraded by quality control mechanisms. When misfolded proteins evade quality control, they form aggregates that are sequestered to specific sites within cells. Read more
