Reproductive Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

We have 28 Reproductive Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

The evolutionary basis of feeding preferences: A Geometric Framework approach

Despite the essential role food plays in our lives, we have little understanding of how different nutrients work together to impact functioning, or the reasons individuals choose certain combinations of food. Read more

Developmental consequences of heat stress during early mammalian embryogenesis

Epidemiological evidence in humans indicates that acute heat exposure around the time of mating results in pregnancy loss, with potential long-term consequences for offspring health and wellbeing; although these latter adverse effects are poorly understood. Read more

Pharmacological effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on mesenchymal stem cells in endometriosis

Endometriosis is a common long-term health condition that affects around 190 million women of reproductive age worldwide. It causes severe pain during periods, sex, going to the toilet, and sometimes just general pelvic discomfort, bloating, and tiredness. Read more

Computational modelling to understand the key drivers of placental evolution

Supervisory Team. Bram Sengers (SoE), Rohan Lewis (Medicine). Project description. This project will use computational modelling in combination with 3D multiscale multimodal imaging to improve our understanding of placental evolution, in close collaboration between Engineering and Medicine. Read more

Differential equation modelling to address male infertility

Infertility affects 1 in 6 couples, is emotionally devastating, and requires expensive and invasive treatments. Importantly, we place a significant and unequal burden on women, who often require risk-bearing procedures to address what is caused by, in 50% of cases, a male factor. Read more

Pathways to a healthy lifespan: investigating the exceptional fertility of Naked Mole Rats

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
As women age, their reproductive system undertakes significant changes that impact on their fertility and overall health. Despite its importance to society, research that could delay or limit these impacts on women’s health is held back by a lack of suitable models. Read more

Exploring Uncharted Territories: Investigating the Impact of Follicular Fluid Extracellular Vesicles on Spermatozoa Function

The intricate dynamics underlying successful mammalian reproduction continue to captivate scientific inquiry. However, the mechanisms governing the interaction between spermatozoa and the female reproductive tract remain elusive. Read more

Effect of androgens on preantral follicle development

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that affects >5% of women of reproductive age and is the most common cause of menstrual dysfunction and is associated with metabolic abnormalities and increased risk to long-term health. Read more

Extreme conservation: reproductive strategies of Malagasy shorebirds

Do you want to build your career in wildlife conservation or behavioural ecology? Our project offers the extraordinary opportunity to conduct cutting-edge research in one of the world's most captivating and ecologically diverse locations. Read more

Heads and Tails - Tracking the sperm's beating flagellum

Infertility affects 1 in 6 couples, is emotionally devastating, and requires expensive and invasive treatments. Importantly, we place a significant and unequal burden on women, who often require risk-bearing procedures to address what is caused by, in 50% of cases, a male factor. Read more
