World-Leading Doctoral Scholarship in Chemistry & Physics / Physics & Chemistry: Materials discovery and quantum phenomena in transition metal oxides through unconventional synthesis routes
Transition metal oxide-based materials have provided some of the most enigmatic and useful phenomena studied in recent decades. Read more
World-Leading Doctoral Scholarship in Biology and Statistics- Developing Novel Methods for Estimating the Abundance of Breeding Grey Seals
Research Group:
Scottish Oceans Institute
Interdisciplinary approaches, such as statistical ecology, are increasingly needed to tackle pressing environmental challenges. Uniting the disciplines of biology and statistics can help us to better understand and ultimately conserve the environment. Read more
Reaction- and Interaction-Enabled Nanoparticles. (a PhD in Synthetic Supramolecular and Nanochemistry)
Our research focuses on translating the logical and rational strategies of molecular and supramolecular synthetic chemistry into the nanoworld. Read more
PhD in Enantioselective Catalysis and mechanistic studies
Our research is currently directed towards developing catalytic methods for the promotion of a range of synthetic transformations with varying applications in asymmetric synthesis. Read more
PhD position in synthetic inorganic/organometallic chemistry: New reactivity from unusual molecular main group compounds
The chemistry of the main group elements has seen some remarkable advances in the past years. Read more
PhD in Optoelectronic Materials or Photocatalysis
Members of the Zysman-Colman group conduct research at the interface of organic or organometallic optoelectronic materials, physical organic, and supramolecular chemistry. Read more
PhD studentship in Main Group Synthesis and Catalysis
Research activities in Kilian group are centred on the design and synthesis of novel organophosphorus and heavier Group 15 (As, Sb, Bi) organoelement compounds. Read more
School of Geography and Sustainable Development PhD Studentship Competition 2022
The School of Geography and Sustainable Development (SGSD) is delighted to announce the 2022 PhD Studentship Competition. Three fully funded PhD scholarships are available to join the School’s vibrant research community. Read more
Single-molecule spectroscopy and super-resolution imaging of organic semiconductor materials
Organic semiconductors based on light-emitting conjugated polymers are attracting considerable interest in semiconductor physics and are emerging as exceptional 'plastic-like' materials for optoelectronic applications including displays, lasers and solar cells. Read more
How do recreational activities alter spatiotemporal species interactions networks, and can this knowledge assist in promoting pro-environmental behaviour?
Research Group:
Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling
Supervisors. The student will be based primarily at the University of St Andrews within Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling (. Read more
World-Leading Doctoral Scholarship in Modern Languages and Biology - Netting Nineteenth-Century Knowledge: Rediscovering ‘Missing’ Abundance and Biodiversity Baselines in Fisheries Research
Research Group:
Scottish Oceans Institute
Many data collections and fish databases for marine and freshwater environments show the effects of over-fishing, pollution, water resource management and introduction of invasive species. Read more
World-Leading Doctoral Scholarship in Chemistry and Biology- Targeting carbohydrate processing enzymes in the fight against Neglected tropical diseases
Research Group:
Biomedical Sciences Research Centre
The parasitic protozoa Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi, and Leishmania species are the causative agents of the “Neglected” tropical diseases. Read more
Jellies in the deep: quantifying siphonophore abundance and biodiversity in the mesopelagic (200-1,000 m depth) and how siphonophores bias acoustic estimates of mesopelagic fish biomass.
Research Group:
Scottish Oceans Institute
The mesopelagic zone is the part of the open ocean between 200 and 1,000 m depth, often referred to as the ‘twilight zone’. A distinguishing feature of this zone is the Deep Scattering Layer (DSL), so-called because of the mass of organisms that aggregate at around 500 m which scatter sound from SONAR devices. Read more
Cosmological Modified Gravity simulations with massive sterile neutrinos
This project would involve setting up a large (>100 Mpc) cosmological simulation in the Modified Gravity (MOND) framework, but supplemented with 11 eV sterile neutrinos to make up the same total dark energy and matter density as in the Lambda Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM) cosmology. Read more
