Pulling the plug on antimicrobial resistance – novel antimicrobial compounds from The Roman Baths hot spring (Bath, UK)

Applications are invited for a three-year PhD studentship. The studentship will start on 1st October 2024. Project Description. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacterial, fungal and protozoan pathogens is a globally recognised threat to the treatment of infectious diseases. Read more

Enzyme Cascades controlled in the Electrochemical Leaf for Discovery in Antimicrobial Strategy

Antibiotic discovery is usually aimed at single entities, for example a bacterial enzyme or efflux protein. This also means that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) mechanisms are considered in terms of the individual response, for example, mutations in a single target enzyme, affording resistance to the drug.

How does antimicrobial resistance impact on seafood supplies? Developing our understanding to ensure future resilience.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global challenge that threatens the resilience of our food supplies, including seafood, as resistance reduces treatment options when disease outbreaks happen. Read more

125th Anniversary Scholarships for Black British Researchers - Exploring Antimicrobial Resistance in the human GI Microbiome

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious global health problem, which can lead to untreatable bacterial infections. AMR genes can be easily shared between bacteria on transmissible elements such as plasmids. Read more

How does the dynamic intra-membrane aggregation of phage lysis proteins kill bacterial pathogens?

This is an interdisciplinary project. It will provide a unique opportunity to obtain training in a wide range of interdisciplinary skills, including protein engineering techniques, protein purification, atomic force microscopy, neutron reflection and scattering as well as molecular dynamics simulations.

Knowledge-based Design of Dental Surfaces to combat Oral Biofilms

This 4-year BBSRC PhD studentship is a collaboration between University of Liverpool & Unilever R&D. Oral diseases are among the most common noncommunicable diseases worldwide, affecting an estimated 3.5 billion people. Read more

Deconstructing biofilms

  Research Group: Physics of Life
Colonies of bacteria form biofilms to protect themselves from outside threats, like antibiotics, by making an extracellular matrix. Read more

Chance or Necessity: Elucidating host adaptation in atypical Salmonella

Food security is a key sustainable development goal for the United Nations (UN) and it is estimated that more than two billion people did not have access to safe, nutritious and/or sufficient food in 2019. Read more

Investigating the Local Mode of Action of Anti-Perspirants using model systems and advanced probing techniques

This EPSRC Case PhD studentship is a collaboration between the University of Liverpool and Unilever to understand the action of personal care products on skin at the localised chemical level.                  . Read more

High-throughput biomaterials discovery

Polymer biomaterials have revolutionised a range of areas from drug delivery, to antimicrobials, to cellular cryopreservation. There are 1000’s of possible monomer combinations, molecular weights and architectures to be explored, and even small differences can dramatically change their properties. Read more

ARC Training Centre for Next-Gen Biomedical Analysis - PhD scholarships

The ARC Training Centre for Next-Gen Biomedical Analysis invites exceptional individuals to join our collaborative, industry-driven doctoral program. Read more

Linking metabolism and metal resistance in pathogenic bacteria (SULLIVANM_U24AMSSCI)

Primary supervisor - Dr Matthew Sullivan. Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is an effective pathogen of humans and animals and is well known as the leading cause of often-fatal infections in newborn infants. Read more

Molecular dissection of horizontal gene transfer mechanisms in mycobacteria

A fully funded PhD position is available within the lab of Dr Abhinav KV at Leicester Institute of Structural and Chemical Biology (LISCB), University of Leicester, UK to carry out structural studies on large macromolecular machines that undertake horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in mycobacteria. Read more
