Chrono-Vac: Harnessing the chronobiology of skin dendritic cells to boost vaccine efficacy
Project Description. How an individual responds to a vaccine can depend on what time of day that individual was vaccinated. This is evident across a number of vaccines for infectious disease including the COVID-19 vaccines. Read more
Noise-induced transitions in gene regulatory networks
Our world is full of noise sources at different spatial and temporal scales. The temperature and sunlight changes day to night. A receptor protein interacts with its target molecule undergoing Brownian motion. Read more
Role of APC/C subunit post-translational modifications on the function of the APC/C in mitosis
The APC/C is a large macromolecular E3 ubiquitin ligase, that, through targeting protein substrates for polyubiquitylation and 26S proteasome-mediated degradation coordinates the progression of cells through mitosis (1, 2). Read more
Viral regulation of host cell DNA damage response pathways
Human adenoviruses are small non-enveloped viruses and possess a linear, double-stranded DNA genome. Adenovirus has long been used as a tool to dissect the molecular basis of key biological processes such as growth, differentiation and death. Read more
Geological Fate and Impact of Isosaccharinic acid (Geo-FISA)
About the Project. The nuclear fuel cycle has generated higher-level radioactive wastes that will be disposed of in a deep geological facility (GDF) that will provide multiple barriers to the migration of radionuclides to the surface over prolonged timescales (tens of thousands of years). Read more
Identifying new subtype of diabetes, [Biological and Medical Sciences – PhD (Funded)
Location. RILD Building level 3, RD&E Hospital Wonford, Exeter. Read more
In situ HDX-MS of membrane protein-ligand interactions
The project aims to develop an HDX-MS workflow to profile ligand-membrane protein interactions. The identification of hits with high selectivity constitutes an important landmark for the design and development of novel therapeutics. Read more
Exploring the molecular and synaptic effects of genetic risk variants associated with schizophrenia [Neuroscience / Bioinformatics / Transcriptomics] – PhD (Funded)
Location. The University of Exeter’s College of Medicine and Health is inviting applications for a fully-funded PhD studentship to commence in January 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter. Read more
The role of PHF6 during haematopoietic differentiation
PHD finger protein 6 (PHF6) is a protein, consisting of two atypical plant homeodomains (aPHD1/2) with nuclear and nucleolar localization sequences. Read more
Transcription factor complexes in Acute Myeloid Leukaemia
Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is a group of blood cancers, resulting from uncontrolled cellular proliferation of cells belonging to the myeloid lineage. Read more
Examining the mechanisms that cause cardiovascular disease by studying the heart or adipose tissue
Heart failure has a serious impact on our society and once diagnosed has a poor survival rate. In the United Kingdom, there are about 1.5 million people living with the after-effects of a heart attack. Read more
Using structural biology to develop drugs and improve genetic testing for polycystic kidney disease
Are you looking for a PhD in structural and computational biology applied to drug development for human diseases?. Read more
Exploring the Molecular Mechanism of Novel Mitochondrial Neurotoxins identified through a Machine Learning Approach
Mitochondrial inhibition is an important ‘OFF-target’ mechanism of drug-induced toxicity in the clinic, contributing to drug attrition in clinical trials and drug withdrawal following approval because of severe adverse events 1. Read more
Identifying novel ways of producing keratin proteins and resultant sustainable textile fibers
Applicants are invited to apply for a fully funded PhD programme to carry out a feasibility study to identify novel ways of producing recombinant keratin proteins and resultant sustainable textile fibers. Read more
Fully Funded MSc by Research in Cardiovascular and Diabetes Medicine: Role of hyaluronan receptor, RHAMM in metabolic regulation in obesity
The North-East Scotland (NES) Diabetes and Cardiovascular Research Alliance Masters Training Programme (MTP) in cardiovascular and diabetes medicine is an exciting new MTP that will expand interdisciplinary cardiovascular and diabetes research between. Read more
