BBSRC NWD: From Molecules to Models: AI-Driven Ion Channel Analysis
About the Project. Ion channels are targets for thousands of drugs but also the underlying cause of many dangerous off-target drug effects (https://doi.org/10.1152/physrev.1999.79.4.1317). Read more
BBSRC NWD: Investigating the nexus between Ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules and Tau during neuronal ageing
Ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules are membrane-less organelles enriched in RNAs and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). They are proposed to regulate RNA translation, localization, storage and decay and to play essential roles in neuronal function and maintenance. Read more

EASTBIO: The regulation by retinoic acid receptor signalling pathways of developmental neuronal circuit formation and adult neural plasticity in the mammal
This fully funded, 4-year PhD project is part of a competition funded by the BBSRC EASTBIO Doctoral Training Partnership. How neuronal circuits form during development is a fundamental question in biology. Read more

EASTBIO: Understanding the role of STC2 in regulation of skeletal muscle growth and maintenance
This fully funded, 4-year PhD project is part of a competition funded by the BBSRC EASTBIO Doctoral Training Partnership. About a third of elderly admissions to long-term health care facilities are due to frailty and inability to perform daily living activities. Read more

EASTBIO CASE: Investigating the mechanisms underlying protective genetic associations with metabolic disease
This fully funded, 4-year PhD project is part of a competition funded by the BBSRC EASTBIO Doctoral Training Partnership. This is a CASE studentship (Collaborative Awards in Science and Engineering). Read more
Female-specific physiological responses to exercise in the heat (Ref: SSEHS/SR25)
This project proposes a timely investigation into the impacts of rising global temperatures on female exercisers. Read more
Investigating the physiological and biomechanical demands of wheelchair rugby game play: Implications for load monitoring (Ref: SSHES/TOB25)
Wheelchair rugby (WR) is a mixed gender Paralympic sport, characterised by intermittent sprint activity and a large aerobic contribution. Read more

The effects of hypoxia on decision making, cognitive flexibility, memory, and pain
Applications are invited for a fully-funded three year PhD to commence in October 2025. . The PhD will be based in the Faculty of Science and Health within the School of Psychology, Sport and Health Science, and will be supervised by Dr Nils Niederstrasser and Dr Joe Costello. Read more

EASTBIO: When Timing Matters: Exploring Synchrony of Multisensory Signals in Real and Online Environments [CASE project]
Multisensory integration, the brain’s ability to combine information from different sensory modalities, is crucial for interacting with the environment. Read more

EASTBIO Exploring form & function in one of nature’s most powerful water-conservation systems
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
You will use modern techniques to study the development and/or physiology of one of the most powerful water-conserving systems in nature – the beetle cryptonephridial (or ‘buried kidney’) complex. Read more
Physical activity as a method to ameliorate the effects of early life stress on allostatic load in adulthood (Deakin University)
This is an opportunity to study a fully-funded PhD in both Australia and the UK, and to work with internationally recognised researchers in child health and neurodevelopment. Read more
Estimating the burden of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in children and adults
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is often characterised by overactive, inattentive, and impulsive behaviours which have a negative effect on academic, occupational, or social lives of people with this condition. Read more
Implementing and evaluating person-centred key performance indicators in nursing homes
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
As the population ages, more older adults will receive care through long-term care settings. We are currently moving from a medical view of care towards a more person-centred approach to care, valuing the personhood of the individual and not just treating or managing a disease. Read more
Understanding physical activity and sedentary behaviour in adults with congenital heart disease: co-design and feasibility testing of an intervention
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
Congenital heart defects are the most common birth defects, defined as clinically significant structural heart disease present at birth and affect approximately 1% of births. Read more
The identification of predictors for inappropriate service users repeat referrals for cardiac investigations; and the development of an intervention to reduce mis-referrals
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
People who feel their heart beating faster and stronger than normal (palpitations) often are sent for tests on their heart. These tests try to find the cause of these fast heart beats so that these people can be treated with medication or procedures to correct the problem. Read more
