Uncovering the Molecular Drivers of Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is a complex and multifaceted disease. Understanding the mechanisms that govern its development, and progression is critical to advancing diagnostic and treatment approaches. Read more
EASTBIO Investigating a role for the placenta in signalling maternal stress to the fetus and programming the fetal brain
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Background to project. Maternal stress during pregnancy ‘programs’ long-lasting neuroendocrine and behavioural changes in the offspring [1,2]. Read more
EASTBIO Exploring form & function in one of nature’s most powerful water-conservation systems
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
You will use modern techniques to study the development and/or physiology of one of the most powerful water-conserving systems in nature – the beetle cryptonephridial (or ‘buried kidney’) complex. Read more
EastBio: Investigating the interplay between obesity and immune dysfunction using Drosophila
Obesity, a global epidemic, is a major risk factor for a range of metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and fatty liver disease. 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
(Bicentenary) Integration of multi-modal datasets to understand the adipose tissue response to obesity
Obesity is a disease at crisis levels in many populations. It is associated with increased risk of cancer, hypertension, steatotic liver disease, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Read more
Preclinical evaluation of mitophagy inducers as a multisystem therapy in diabetes
Application deadline - midday (GMT) Friday 10 January 2025. Additional supervisor. Professor Melanie Davies, University of Leicester. Read more
The impact of the menstrual cycle on harmful gambling behaviour in females
Application deadline - midday (GMT) Friday 10 January 2025. Additional industrial supervisor. Dr Rosalind Baker-Frampton, Clinical Director, Gordon Moody. Read more
The biological and cognitive mechanisms underlying disrupted metabolic function in psychosis and psychosis-risk: From exploring temporality using data-driven approaches, to exploring granularity and dose-response using person-driven approaches
Application deadline - midday (GMT) Friday 10 January 2025. Additional supervisors. Dr Colin T Dourish, Blue Day Healthcare and Dr Elizabeth Simpson, University of Nottingham. Read more
Investigating how accessory proteins modify the function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in appetite regulation
Application deadline - midday (GMT) Friday 10 January 2025. Additional supervisors. Dr Steve Briddon, University of Nottingham and Dr Joëlle Goulding, University of Nottingham . Read more
Improving our understanding of heart failure in women living in the UK
The gender health gap in the UK is the largest amongst the G20 countries and the 12th largest globally. Read more
The functional, metabolic and molecular cortisol-induced reprogramming of platelets.
Platelets are blood cells which circulate the body continually probing for damage to the vessel wall. On recognition of damage, platelets rapidly become activated and recruit additional platelets and immune cells to the site of injury, this function supports stable haemostasis. Read more
Investigating the role of sphingosine-1-phosphate in obesity-associated metabolic disorders, and as a predictive marker for weight loss interventions
Project ID. HI_14. Theme. Health Innovation. It is known that obesity leads to many metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, liver disease and asthma due to increased systemic inflammation. Read more
The social and environmental predictors of health resilience in a wild animal model
Project ID. HI_5. Theme. Health Innovation. Unlock the secrets of health resilience in wild baboons and make a significant impact on our understanding of immune function, behaviour and health in primates!. Read more
Social, Ancestry, Molecular and Biological Analyses of Cancer Inequalities
This multidisciplinary PhD project will be based at the University of Nottingham Biodiscovery Institute, and will involve collaborations with the SAMBAI… Read more
