Using innovative microfluid technology to study infection dynamics in human lungs
Lung infections and diseases pose significant challenges to global health, impacting millions of individuals worldwide. Aspergillus, Cryptococcus, Pneumocystis, and endemic fungi are major pulmonary fungal pathogens that can result in life-threatening invasive diseases in immuno-compromised patients. Read more
Defining the mechanistic basis of Aspergillus fumigatus and Non-tuberculous mycobacteria coinfection
Respiratory infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses are a global cause of death according to the WHO. Respiratory coinfections are on the rise and in general linked with poor patient outcomes. Read more
Understanding the molecular basis for mitophagic selectivity in yeast
A Rehovot-based lab (Hebrew University- Rehovot campus) is seeking outstanding Ph.D. candidates for an exciting molecular biology project involving proteomic and advanced microscopy analyses of autophagic protein degradation networks. Read more
EastBio: The effects of circadian rhythms in potassium concentration on cell biology.
Circadian rhythms are a fundamental feature of life, found in all eukaryotes. In our own bodies, plants, and fungi, every cell keeps time by itself. Read more
Understanding the biosynthesis and mode of action of the anticancer antibiotic pleurotin for production of new analogues
Fungi are prolific producers of bioactive molecules used in medicine. For example, penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics represent together 47% of the global antibiotic market. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Wild solutions: unlocking the potential of native grass microbiomes to boost crop resilience to environmental stress
Project Overview. As climate change, modern agriculture, and land-use changes continue to degrade soil health and threaten global food security, there is an urgent need for sustainable solutions. Read more
Non-coding RNA function in cellular quiescence and ageing
About our group: We are interested in genome regulation and gene function during cellular quiescence and ageing using fission yeast and turquoise killifish as model systems. Read more

China Scholarship Council: Role and mechanism of the bacterial Type VI secretion system
Many species of bacteria use a contractile nanomachine known as the Type VI secretion system (T6SS) to deliver a wide range of toxic proteins, known as ‘effectors’, directly into neighbouring cells. Read more
EastBio: Investigating how cell size impacts proteome homoeostasis and cellular signaling.
One of the most obvious differences between cells of different type is their size. Even within a given cell type, there are constant variations in size and, of course, a single proliferating cell will double in size every cell cycle. Read more
Unravelling the global microbiome of crop plants to improve sustainability and food security
Plants live in close association with complex communities of microbes which together constitute their ‘microbiome’. The microbiome interacts with the plant in numerous ways; some microbes are beneficial and promote plant growth, while others are pathogens which reduce crop yields. Read more

ACCE+ DLA programme: Invisible diversity in a changing world: How do soil microbes affect plant drought tolerance?
The ACCE+ DLA is committed to recruiting extraordinary future scientists regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, faith or religious belief, pregnancy or maternity, parental or caring responsibilities or career pathway to date. Read more
(Bicentenary) Assessing the implications of a novel mycobiome diagnostic on the impact of domestic mould exposure in patient groups
Exploring the Impact of Domestic Mould on Respiratory Health with a Novel Diagnostic Tool - This study aims to validate a novel mycobiome diagnostic tool developed by Weaver et al. Read more
One Crop Health PhD Programme - Impacts of agronomic practices on wheat stem diseases
Background. Wheat stem diseases, e.g. eyespot, rhizoctonia and fusarium stem-rot can cause significant yield-losses. Recent work at Rothamsted on wheat eyespot has found about 35% of ‘eyespot lesions’ were caused by other fungi. Read more
