Graduate Teaching Assistantship. This is a Graduate Training Assistantship (GTA), which means that you will be required to do some teaching, particularly lab demonstrating, as part of your training. Read more
The molecule design process is often hampered by high costs and lengthy development cycles. Recent advances in 3D-aware generative models offer a promising route to accelerate novel molecule discovery, yet these approaches frequently encounter two critical limitations. Read more
Density functional theory (DFT) has been the most popular method for understanding the electronic structure of materials from first principles for over 30 years, thanks to its balance of computational efficiency, accuracy, and simplicity. Read more
NLRP1 was the first inflammasome to be described, and its hyperactivation is linked to autoinflammatory disease, neuroinflammation and endometriosis. Read more
About the Project. Advances in computational techniques now allow us to design artificial nanoscale structures from biological molecules such as proteins. Read more
Are you interested in a PhD studying antibiotic resistant bacteria and keen to develop your research skills in microbiology combined computational methods as well as understand how proteins work and their intricate structures and how they interact with metals?. Read more
We are seeking an enthusiastic, motivated candidate with an interest in combining biophysics, structural biology and computational chemistry approaches to protein design. Read more
In this project, peptides, which match the sequence and structural diversity of proteins, will be used to probe proteins of biomedical interest. Read more
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the University of Bath URSA competition, for entry in September 2025. Read more
Water scarcity and contamination are among the most pressing global challenges of our time. Approximately 25% of the global population lives in regions experiencing annual water strees, a number projected to rise significantly by 2050. Read more

Proteins in signal transduction pathways usually display an ultrasensitive cooperative response. This response is only possible if information can be exchanged between distal sites in a protein complex. Read more
A fully-funded 3.5 year PhD position is available in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham, in the Computational Chemistry Group of Professor David Scanlon. Read more
