(BBSRC NWD) mRNA epigenetics: Characterization of novel layer of gene regulation for essential brain functions
For over 40 years we know about modified nucleotides in mRNA, but the emerging field of epitranscriptomics is still in its infancy in developing methods for accurate global detection of mRNA modifications. Read more
Molecular profiling of altered cell states in renal ciliopathies
Research Group:
MRC Human Genetics Unit
This project is part of Cilia-AI (European Training Programme for Deconvolution of Multi-scale Cilia Function in Health and Disease by Integrating Machine Learning-AI Approaches. Read more
Role of mechanosensing in the development of haematopoietic stem cells
Research Group:
Institute for Regeneration and Repair
Background. Haematopoietic stem cells (HSC) emerge from the endothelium of the embryonic dorsal aorta through the process called endothelial-to-haematopoietic transition (EHT). Read more

QUARTILES DLA: Genomics of sea water adaptation in salmonids: from evolutionary insights to aquaculture applications
This fully funded PhD project is part of the QUARTILES Doctoral Landscape Award, a BBSRC and NERC-funded research and training programme designed to equip… Read more
Structural characterization of vesicle tethering at the Golgi
All eukaryotic cells use membrane vesicles to transfer material between intracellular compartments. Read more
Investigating the impact of PRMT-catalysed methylation on RBP:RNA interactions, mRNP granule formation (LLPS), structural dynamics and gene regulation
Methylation is known to be a key regulator of gene expression throughout eukaryotes. The Walrad, Plevin and Brackenbury labs are part of the York Biomedical Research Institute, global leaders in leishmaniasis and cancer research, with partnerships in >20 countries. Read more
Genomics and genetics of traditional smallholder crops: amaranth and cowpea
Traditional, or underutilised, crops are not traded internationally, but can play a role in the resilience and sustainability of local food systems. Read more
Signalling complexes and cell wall changes during plant reproduction
We are looking for a student interested in plant developmental, molecular and cell biology to join a vibrant and supportive group of researchers (jointly headed by Lisa Smith, Sam Amsbury and Andrew Fleming), providing an excellent collaborative environment for your PhD at the University of Sheffield. Read more
How does non-coding RNA structure regulate gene expression?
Background. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a vital role in human physiology through regulating gene expression, impacting fundamental cellular processes. Read more
Exploring bacteria-mycorrhizal fungi-plant interactions regulating nutrient exchange
Plant-microbe interactions underpin crop production. Bacteria and fungi are implicated in improving plant health with recent research showing these microbes synergise to additively increase crop yields. Read more
Investigating how cell size and mRNA dilution impacts the nascent proteome.
Research Group:
Institute of Quantitative Biology, Biochemistry and Biotechnology
Cell size is a fundamental, but poorly understood, cellular parameter. Cell size sets the scales for organelle structures, surface transport and, most crucially, biosynthetic rates. Read more
