Integrated approaches to investigating bacterial pathogens for public health benefit
This project is part of the. DPhil in Biology at the University of Oxford. Bacteria have been on the planet for 3.5 billion years and are found in all environments. Read more
Sleep and delirium - towards a multicomponent intervention to improve sleep on acute medicine of elderly wards
The . Advanced Care Research Centre (ACRC). is a multi-disciplinary, £20M research centre at the University of Edinburgh. Read more
Understanding the role of the reward system in the pathophysiology and treatment of mood disorders
Reward sensitivity (the value attributed to rewarding outcomes by an individual) is attenuated in people with mood disorders and is known to be mediated by dopaminergic signalling. Read more
Understanding the heterogeneity of pathology in dementia with Lewy bodies to aid the interpretation of biomarkers
The primary pathology of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is alpha-synuclein, however multiple studies have demonstrated that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) related pathologies (tau and beta amyloid) play an important role in disease progression driving spread of pathology and accelerating cognitive decline.

Understanding Essential Tremor as a Miscalibrated Internal Model
Essential tremor (ET) is the most common reason for referral to a neurologist, with a prevalence of around 1-3%. Sufferers experience involuntary shaking of the limbs at around 5Hz; mild cases cause only social embarrassment, but more severe tremor can be disabling and limit activities of daily living.

Characterization of the protective and therapeutic role of photobiomodulation on 3D oral mucosal and salivary gland models subjected to radiotherapy
Radiotherapy (RT) is a common standard therapy used for locally advanced head and neck malignant tumours. The radiation triggers the production of free radicals that can cause direct damage to the DNA structure of malignant cells. Read more

PhD Studentship in Motor Neuron Disease – Using a Primate Model to Test Novel Therapies
Overview. Interested in neurodegenerative disorders? This PhD project will use a new primate model of motor neuron disease (MND) to explore disease mechanisms and test novel therapies and biomarkers of disease progression. Read more
Understanding the Neurobiology of Parkinson's and related diseases
Background. The world-leading Parkinson's and Related Diseases Research Group based at the Brain and Mind Centre in the University of Sydney is providing an exciting opportunity for a PhD student scholarship. Read more
Applied optogenetics to study the influence of neuronal activity on neurodegeneration
Optogenetic approaches use genetically encoded, light-inducible proteins that can be expressed in specific tissues and cell types (e.g. Read more
Investigate neuron-glia interactions in MND using advanced molecular and microscopy techniques
This project aims to characterise some of the fundamental interactions between motor neurons and glial cells (microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes) in the CNS. Read more
