We have 674 Cell Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK
Manipulation of neuroimmune responses and behaviour by infectious agents
The project focuses on how infectious agents modify the individuals that they infect and how neuroimmune responses to infection moderate behaviour changes in warm-blooded animals and humans. Read more
Illuminating the Dark Genome's Role in Chromosome Segregation and Cellular Aging
The human genome harbors vast untapped potential within its "dark" regions, comprising 98% of our genetic material. This project, a collaboration between the Draviam laboratory and NonExomics INC, aims to revolutionise our understanding of the dark genome, focusing on chromosome segregation gene encoding loci.

SubCortical Maternal Complex - a small complex with a big role in early human development (MONKD_U25SCI)
Primary supervisor - Prof David Monk. Human fertility is declining, which is observed via the use of IVF and an increase in overall miscarriage rates. Read more
Investigating the effect of stress hormones in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia
Applications are invited for a 3-year funded PhD studentship at Brighton and Sussex Medical School. Project details. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) is the most common leukaemia in the UK. Read more
Developing magnetic lenses and inductively coupled coils to sense individual quantum spins
This project is part of the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Quantum Technology Engineering at the University of Southampton (https://qte.ac.uk/). Read more
The role and the mechanism of circular RNAs in oncogenic human herpesvirus infection and pathogenesis
Human gamma-herpesviruses, specifically Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV), cause 250,000 cancer cases annually, yet lack vaccines or antivirals. Read more
PhD+ Studentship: Regulation of hepatic ion channels by the SGLT2-inhibitor antidiabetic medication dapagliflozin
Aston University is launching a pioneering, fully-funded doctoral scholarship scheme designed to equip researchers with the skills that are crucial for success in the digital age and to meet the demands of the new industrial revolution powered by technology. Read more
MRes - Developing novel PROTAC molecules targeting mutated BRAF (V600E) in melanoma disease: design, synthesis, and biological evaluation Project ID (SAS0215).
Melanoma ranks as the fifth most common cancer in the UK with over 132,000 new cases reported annually worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, this figure is predicted to rise significantly, reaching 500,000 by 2040. Read more
Investigating the Disruption of Invading Breast Cancer Cells to the Regenerative Capacity of Bone Cells in a Tissue Engineered Tumour Microenvironment
Metastasis in breast cancer reduces five-year survival rates in the UK from 99% to 15%[1]. One of the most common sites for tumour metastasis is bone, affecting approximately 70% of patients with over 24,000 in the UK alone[1]. Read more
Investigating how accessory proteins modify the function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in appetite regulation
Project Outline. This PhD project will explore how accessory proteins modify the signalling of GPCRs involved in appetite regulation, using state-of-the-art signalling assays and cutting-edge microscopy techniques. Read more
Regulation of apoptosis-induced compensatory cell proliferation and its implications for cancer and tissue regeneration
In multi-cellular organisms, coordinated cell death (e.g. apoptosis) and cell replacement is critical for tissue recovery in response to stress or damage. Read more
BBSRC MIBTP: How Cell Death Fuels Growth
Research Group:
BBSRC MIBTP
Apoptosis, a major form of programmed cell death, is frequently activated in response to stress to remove damaged cells in multi-cellular organisms. Read more
Antiviral defence during early development
The major innate immune response against viruses, the type I interferon response, is inactive during the very early days of embryonic development. Read more
Dissecting the molecular mechanism of chromosome segregation in the marine plankton Diplonema papillatum
We are interested in discovering the fundamental principle of chromosome segregation in eukaryotes. Our focus is on the kinetochore, a highly complicated macromolecular protein machine that assembles onto centromeric DNA and interacts with spindle microtubules during mitosis and meiosis. Read more
The mitotic tsunami: how cells re-build their identity in G1.
The Buonomo and Gilbert groups aim at building an understanding of the eukaryotic nuclear function that integrates knowledge from what are traditionally viewed as different fields, such as epigenetics, DNA replication and nuclear architecture. Read more
