We have 41 Pharmacology (analysis) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Application and development of bioinformatics and network theory methods in cardiovascular disease research and pharmacovigilance

To be able to discover novel drug targets we aim to develop software based on network theoretic approaches that are capable to identify mediators and pathways involved in the pathomechanism of various cardiovascular diseases by the analysis of datasets assessed with high throughput molecular biological techniques (e.g. Read more

Analysis of the role of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells in methotrexate-induced liver toxicity

Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) comprise approximately 50% of the non-parenchymal hepatic cells. They play a vital role in hepatic microcirculation and provide a physiological barrier to the movement of xenobiotics from the bloodstream to hepatic tissue. Read more

Integrated omics approach to psychiatric disorders

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
In psychiatry, the selection of antipsychotics and antidepressants is led by a trial-and-error approach. The prescribing of these medications is complicated by sub-optimal efficacy and high rates of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Read more

Inflammatory Arthritis in Childhood: Impact, Outcomes and Safety of Treatment

Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis is the most common inflammatory arthritis of childhood. Although less common than arthritis in adults, a diagnosis of arthritis in a child can have lasting impacts on that child and their families through their entire lifespan. Read more

Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel polysialyltransferase inhibitors as anti- metastatic agents

  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Polysialic acid plays an essential role in neuronal development, but by adulthood is absent from the human body. Its biosynthesis is regulated by two polysialyltransferases (polySTs). Read more

Structure-based design of allosteric modulators for G protein-coupled receptors using molecular modelling and pharmacology experiments

Almost all physiological processes are regulated through the activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). It has become widely accepted that most GPCRs possess binding sites spatially distinct from their natural ligand binding site (orthosteric site), termed as allosteric sites. Read more

Transcriptome biomarkers and mechanisms of chemoresistance

Project Summary. This project aims to identify biomarkers linked to the most potent multimodal anticancer therapy with the least toxicity to counteract hemoresistance in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). 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

Discovering off-target side-effects and drug repurposing candidates using expression perturbation data

The MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit at the University of Bristol is the leading group for the development and application of causal analysis and evidence triangulation in health research to improve lives. Read more

Vascularisation of tumour organoids for mechanistic and drug development

Gliomas such as are the most common form of brain tumour, a subset Glioblastoma (GBM) are devastating adult brain cancer with high rates of recurrence and treatment resistance. Read more
