We have 5 craniofacial PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

AI-assisted diagnosis, surgical planning & implant design for craniofacial patient care

Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust BRC Translational Research (Non-Clinical) PhD Studentships

Craniofacial diseases, particularly in craniosynostosis cases, present significant challenges in diagnosis and treatment. Read more

Biophysical explorations of neural crest cell behaviours in development and cancer

King’s College London School of Natural & Mathematical Sciences

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

Supervisors: Prof R Isaacson, Prof K Liu

Investigating monogenic disorders of the protein synthesis machinery

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

Translation of mRNA into proteins is a critical cellular biological process. We recently described a novel human disorder, now called Faundes-Banka Syndrome (FABAS), caused by heterozygous variants in EIF5A1 that encodes a translation factor. Read more
