What are the consequences of sexual dimorphism for habitat choice? Lessons from an actinorhizal dioecious plant (Hippophae rhamnoides L.)
Funding. This PhD project is part of a competition funded by SRUC. This opportunity is open to UK and International students and provides funding to cover tuition fees at the UK rate, plus a stipend to support living costs. Read more
Leveraging Machine Learning and Shotgun Metagenomics to Address Antibiotic Resistance in Environmental Microbiomes
*Please note that this PhD will be hosted at the University of Reading*. Antibiotic resistance is a critical global challenge that threatens not only human health but also ecosystem stability and biodiversity. Read more
Exploring the potential and limitations of cover cropping in spring barley rotations in Northern Scotland, with a focus on establishment reliability
Funding. This PhD project is part of a competition funded by SRUC. This opportunity is open to UK and International students and provides funding to cover tuition fees at the UK rate, plus a stipend to support living costs. Read more
PhD Studentships in the School of Environment, Earth and Ecosystem Sciences
The School of Environment, Earth and Ecosystem Sciences at The Open University (Faculty of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) invites applications for the following full or part-time PhD studentships open to all nationalities. Read more
Deep Learning in Remotely Sensed Image Understanding for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services
*Please note that this PhD will be hosted at the University of Reading*. Remote sensing technologies, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), offer a large amount of high-resolution images in monitoring impact of climate change and habitat destruction on biodiversity and ecosystem services.

Quantifying Species Distributions and Changes in a Global Biodiversity Hotspot using Museum Specimens and AI
*Please note that this PhD will be hosted at the University of Reading*. Madagascar, a megadiverse country has a high concentration of endemic plant and animal species (i.e., species found nowhere else on earth) and classified as a global biodiversity hotspot. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) Fungicides and Soil Health: Uncovering impacts for sustainable farming
Annually, millions of tons of fungicides are applied globally to protect crops from fungal diseases, ensuring food security and the production of healthy, high-yielding harvests. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) Investigating eco-corona formation on microplastics/nanoplastics and its impact on biological behaviour in freshwater ecosystems
Microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) are pervasive pollutants in freshwater environments, posing risks to aquatic ecosystems, agricultural systems, and food safety. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) Mobile Genetic Elements as key drivers for sustainable Wheat-Fungus Adaptations in a Changing Climate
As the world confronts pressing global challenges like a projected population surge to 9.7 billion by 2050, climate change, and the rise of pest pressures, innovative strategies to enhance crop resilience are essential for food security and environmental stability. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) The developmental origin of accelerated aging
Aging is an inevitable aspect of human life that is associated with a gradual decline in physiological function. However, the rate of biological aging varies substantially between different individuals and populations. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) Tackling metal contamination and demand: Engineering microbial biorecovery of metals
This project will focus on the development of a new approach for the removal and biorecovery of high value and precious metals from waste streams to address global challenges associated with environmental metal contamination and the growing demand for metallic catalysts. Read more
Discover the future of sustainability with a PhD at the world’s #1 university for Built Environment studies
Globally, we need to rise to the challenges of the climate crisis and create a more sustainable, equitable world. At the Bartlett School of Environment, Energy and Resources, University College London (UCL), we believe a better future is possible. Read more
