We have 23 Pharmaceutical Chemistry (cell biology) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Does one size fit all for antimicrobial delivery via nanoparticles

Antimicrobial resistant bacteria are a growing problem and new ways are needed to target bacterial infections more efficiently. One way in which bacteria can avoid therapeutics is via intracellular infection, where they hide within our own cells. Read more

Structural-guided PROTAC targeting of BMX to modulate apoptotic sensitivity in disease

What determines at the molecular level whether a cell lives or dies? Regulation of the cellular life–death switch is essential in healthy cells for normal foetal development and for the clearance of damaged cells. Read more

MSc by Research: Glueing proteins together with small molecules

Recent advances from the Ciulli Lab and others have contributed to the establishment of a game-changing new modality of chemical intervention into biological system – one that moves beyond the state-of-the-art. Read more

How to regulate plasticity in the brain

The Kwok Lab at the School of Biomedical Science invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25. Read more

Elucidating the role of lipids in fibrotic capsule formation at the surface of implanted medical devices.

Implanted medical devices are crucial in healthcare, valued at around £400 billion globally, however there is a high failure rate, often due to the foreign body reaction, where a fibrotic capsule forms around the implant with associated inflammation, loosening and infection. Read more

Anticancer Phototherapeutics Based on Transition Metal Complexes

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death around the world. Although existing chemotherapy regimens are often successful in curing many common cancers, they frequently cause serious and unwanted side-effects. Read more

New Anticancer Therapeutics Based on Luminescent Transition Metal Complexes

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death around the world. Over 50% of cancer tumours are treated with platinum-based metal complexes, like cisplatin and its derivatives. Read more

New strategies to cryopreserve cell-based therapies

In the past decade, cell-based therapies have emerged to transform the treatment of disease, particularly cancer. Whilst potent, these therapies are challenging to deliver in practise as must be stored frozen (cryopreserved). Read more

EPSRC CDT in Bioprocess Engineering Leadership: Complex Biological Products Manufacture

Biological products and their manufacture are progressing to unparalleled levels of complexity. Examples include engineered biocatalysts, antibody-drug conjugates, multivalent vaccines and cellular therapies. Read more

High-throughput characterization and engineering of nucleotide synthases for production of nucleoside analogues

Nucleotides are the building blocks of life, modulating diverse processes from protein production to cell signalling. It is therefore unsurprising that synthetic nucleoside analogues have been developed as therapeutics for the treatment of a wide range of diseases including cancers and viral infections. Read more

From bench to pre-clinical evaluation: a novel nucleic acid vaccine targeting tumour-associated antigens

Cancer and the long-term toxicities sustained from treatment remain a public health issue for adult and paediatric patients. The spread of tumour cells is believed to account for up to 90% of cancer-related morbidities. Read more
