Synthesis of Novel Organic Probes for the Study of Lipid-Lipid Interactions

Lipids are diverse and principal components of the cell and are involved in a vast array of processes ranging from their well-known structural importance in cell membranes, through to energy storage and participation in signalling pathways. Read more

Machine learning the dynamics of force-sensing proteins

Mechanosensing proteins detect mechanical forces within cells and convert them into biochemical signals. Understanding the dynamic behaviour of these proteins under force is key for advancing our understanding of this process called mechanotransduction. Read more

The Rhonski project: Examining Rho and Notch signalling in skin development and disease

The skin provides a crucial protective layer between the human body and the outside world. Whilst the epidermis forms a barrier against infection, the inner dermis houses the blood vessels required to sustain the hair follicles and cells contained within both the epidermal and dermal layers. Read more

Biophysical explorations of neural crest cell behaviours in development and cancer

Neural crest cells are highly migratory. These cells travel throughout the developing embryo, eventually contributing to most organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system, pigment cells and craniofacial skeleton. Read more

Elucidating the fate of iron and copper based nanofertilizer in soil-plant system using isotope labelling and synchrotron techniques

Nanotechnology is a rapidly advancing enabling technology with the potential to revolutionize modern life. More recently, the application of nanotechnology in agriculture has garnered significant attention due to its high potential to facilitate sustainable agriculture and enhance food security. Read more

Tackling health inequity in pharmaceuticals

Tackling health inequity in pharmaceuticals. Research has been increasingly highlighting the disparities in the investigation of gender-specific responses to medicines. Read more

Fully funded PhD position in Biopharmaceutical development for pulmonary delivery; Industrial Collaboration

This cross-disciplinary PhD project is between the School of Biomedical Science at UWL and the School of Pharmacy at UCL, and Pharmaceutical company to investigate the feasibility of developing an inhalation form of biotherapeutics for severe chronic inflammatory diseases. Read more

SLS 1: Human lung 3D models to assess antiviral effects of novel and sustainable compounds against SARS-CoV-2 variants

We are looking for a PhD student to develop 3D models of the human breathing lung. The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the resulting Covid pandemic has highlighted the need for effective biological methods to assess viral infectivity and potential antiviral drug candidates. Read more

Fully funded studentship in Plastivore Plasticity: characterising metabolic flexibility in an emerging biotechnological system to manage plastic waste

Applications are invited from high-calibre and passionate students seeking to pursue an exciting career in analytical and environmental science research, with a focus to tackle a growing concern with respect to managing plastic waste. Read more

Investigating intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms driving plasticity in colorectal cancer metastasis

This CRUK-funded project will commence in September 2024 and has funding for 4 years. The successful candidate will be based at Barts Cancer Institute, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (FMD), Charterhouse Square in the City of London. Read more

Combining CRISPR-screens and AI to Identify Novel Therapeutic Strategies to Target Cancer-Stroma Interactions

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Dr Angus Cameron, Reader in Cell Signalling and Tumour Cell Biology, Barts Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University London, Dr Otto Morris, Senior Biological Data Scientist at Exscientia, and Professor Pedro Cutillas, Professor of Cell Signalling and Proteomics, QMUL, Barts Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University London. Read more

AI-based Identification of New Drug Targets for Personalised Oncology

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Professor Francesca Ciccarelli, Lead of the Centre for Cancer Genomics and Computational Biology, Bart's Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University of London. Read more

Role of symbiotic microbes of phytoplankton in future ocean carbon storage and productivity

Marine phytoplankton has a key impact on global carbon and nitrogen cycles. However, their growth is strongly influenced by other smaller microbes, such as bacteria and fungi, that live in the ‘phycosphere’. Read more

Biodesigning the future of scent experience using microbial organisms

Based at Central Saint Martins, UAL, in collaboration with Haeckels. Project overview. Working with microbial organisms such as bacterial, algae, fungi and yeasts, this project aims to explore how scents of the future can be produced, designed and experienced. Read more
