Improving bovine tuberculosis diagnosis using ocular imaging
In humans, ocular tuberculosis (OTB) can be associated with significant morbidity leading to blindness. A detailed understanding of the pathophysiology of tuberculous disease in the eye is required to improve diagnosis and treatment of disease. Read more
Fully funded 4 Year PhD studentships in Biomedical Sciences
Applications are invited from outstanding students wishing to pursue a 4 Year PhD studentship in Biomedical Sciences from September 2025. Read more
Nature restoration on campus: A living theory eco-health approach to addressing the biodiversity crisis and rising to the 30x30 challenge
As we near the midpoint of the UN’s decade for nature restoration and, following the signing of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, educational institutions find themselves challenged to engage with the commitment to protect 30% of the planet for nature by 2030. Read more
Investigating the tissue response to a novel knee ligament implant
This full-time DPhil (PhD) post at the Botnar Institute, NDORMS, University of Oxford, will use cutting edge biomaterial and biological characterisation methods to investigate the tissue response to a novel knee ligament implant in vivo and ex vivo. Read more
Towards a better understanding of the pathogenesis of the recent and highly virulent feline coronavirus strain FCoV-23
Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a devastating viral disease in cats caused by feline coronavirus (FCoV). Most infections are caused by highly contagious feline enteric coronaviruses (FeCV), which are asymptomatic or cause mild enteric disease. Read more
Investigating the role of bacterial surface proteins in Streptococcus uberis bovine mastitis
The impact of antimicrobial resistance is growing, affecting the treatment of human and veterinary infections throughout the world. Read more
Exploiting novel stem cell technologies to investigate prion strain evolution
Emerging infectious diseases that potentially threaten humans often arise at the interface between wildlife and livestock. A major challenge to research on these diseases is a relative lack of relevant experimental models for the species and tissues of interest. Read more
Comparative analysis of the role of the microbiome in regulating uterine function in the bovine and human
The uterine microbiome is increasingly recognised as a key regulator of reproductive health, yet its role in orchestrating physiological processes in the reproductive tract remains poorly understood. Read more
Cell movement and collagen production in development and regeneration of the skin
Organs generate their structures during embryonic development through the production and precise placement of specialised cells, and the ordering of their extracellular matrix. Read more
Understanding the ecological interplay between tree planting and natural processes to create future forests
Woodland expansion is the focus of many restoration efforts because of its potential to aid biodiversity recovery and mitigate climate change. Read more
Understanding how changes in lipid structure can enable neutrophils to fine tune the immune response to infection
Neutrophils protect us from infection by engulfing prey into membrane bound vesicles called phagosomes. Phagosomes become highly microbicidal environments following the tightly regulated delivery of microbial effectors to the phagosome. Read more
PhD studentships available under the ERC REFRESH programme
We are seeking highly capable candidates for three exciting PhD studentships under the UKRI funded ERC Advanced Grant REFRESH. Researching the role of dissolved organic matter (DOM) as a nutrient resource in freshwater systems. Read more
