Biological Sciences PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Non-European Students in St Andrews

We have 23 Biological Sciences PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Non-European Students in St Andrews

CSC Studentship: Comparative genomics to understand the evolution of vocal learning in mammals.

  Research Group: Centre for Biological Diversity
*China Scholarship Council (CSC)-funded project, applicants must be a national and ordinarily resident of mainland China (not including Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan).*. Read more

CSC studentship: Comparative genomics of acoustic communication in crickets

EVOLUTION OF INSECT ORCHESTRAS. Insect song is extraordinarily diverse. How did this diversity evolve?. The male advertisement song of crickets is a universally recognised backdrop to warm summer evenings, but the genetics of variation in sound production and reception are challenging to unravel. Read more

Analysis of the roles of protein arginine methylation in motor neuron disease using quantitative proteomics

This project is on offer as part of the studentship scheme of the Euan MacDonald Centre for Motor Neuron Disease Research. The Euan MacDonald Centre is a multi-disciplinary network of MND researchers across Scotland. Read more

CSC studentship: Novel drug development for treating Alzheimer’s disease and cancer

Research in the Gunn-Moore group studies the cellular and biochemical development and survival of the mammalian nervous system. Their approach to achieve this has been one of combining all three science disciplines. Read more

CSC studentship: Understanding Human Cytomegalovirus Latency to Target the Latent Reservoir

  Research Group: Biomedical Sciences Research Centre
Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a herpes virus carried by the majority of the world's population in a dormant state known as 'latency'. Read more

CSC studentship: Engineering the phage T5 genome: what are the limits?

Bacteriophage T5 is a model coliphage with a 120 kb linear double-stranded DNA genome arranged into pre-early, early and late transcription units, encoding in total around 160 proteins and 20-25 tRNAs. Read more

Eco-evolutionary dynamics of AMR transmission via various mobile genetic elements.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacterial pathogens is a major public health crisis, already causing over one million deaths per year and predicted to become the first cause of death by 2050. Read more

How can antibiotics and bacterial defence systems interact to limit antibiotic resistance transmission?

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacterial pathogens is a major public health crisis, already causing over one million deaths per year and predicted to become the first cause of death by 2050. Read more

Unravelling the Molecular Mechanisms Behind Antibiotic Tolerance

Antibiotic resistance jeopardises our ability to effectively treat bacterial infections, yet it is not the only survival strategy pathogenic bacteria use to evade killing by antibiotics. Read more

The role of behaviour in facilitating or hindering adaptation to climate change

Background. Climate change is arguably the greatest threat to biodiversity in the 21st century. Because behaviour is very labile, behavioural responses are typically the first line of defense to rapid environmental change (Gunn et al. Read more

Hidden Markov models for spatially structured populations

  Research Group: Division of Statistics
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) offer a very powerful, flexible, and efficient structure for likelihood computation. They’re a popular tool for problems… Read more
