PhD Studentship in Primate Comparative Genomics: Exploring Somatic Mutations and Ageing Across Evolutionary Timescales
Are you passionate about understanding the fundamental mechanisms of evolution and aging? Join us at the University of Cambridge to investigate how genomic instability influences lifespan and aging across diverse primate species. Read more
MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: Understanding how damaged DNA is excised and repaired to maintain genome integrity and prevent cancer.
Background. DNA is constantly damaged and must be repaired to prevent genome instability and cancer. Conversely chemotherapy typically induces DNA damage to cause cancer cell death. Read more
Open Research from Electronic Lab Notebooks: does AI help biologists to record their science?
Researchers are moving away from paper notes, to record their daily work in electronic lab notebooks, either online or in institutional systems (ref. Read more
Integrative bioinformatics approaches for the identification of novel targets and therapeutics for cell cycle changes and cell death
We are looking for a PhD candidate with a passion to combine bioinformatics and computational biology, as well as next-generation sequencing and high-throughput 'omic technologies, to target cells and their development. Read more
(Bicentenary) Exploring the influence of proteogenomics in patients receiving biologic drugs for treatment of psoriatic arthritis
Background. Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory arthritis, associated with the chronic skin condition psoriasis, which causes joint inflammation. Read more
(Bicentenary) Ethnic, geographic, and sociodemographic inequalities in prostate cancer outcomes in the United Kingdom
Background. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer affecting men in the UK, with new cases expected to rise from 55,000 in 2020 to 80,000 annually by 2040. Read more
Exploration of markers of fibrotic and inflammatory signalling, and associated clinical phenotypes, in patients with Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs)
We invite applicants for a 4-year iCASE studentship to work in collaboration with our industrial partner Abcam Ltd. Second Supervisor. Read more
Functional consequences of genomic tandem repeat expansions in pulmonary fibrosis
Additional Supervisor. Dr Nick Hannan, School of Medicine, University of Nottingham. This important and exciting project explores an underappreciated aspect of genetics that could help us understand and treat Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), a devastating lung disease with limited treatment options. Read more
(Bicentenary) Defining actionable molecular subtypes of ovarian cancer using AI and multi-omic data integration
The Project. High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most prevalent and deadly ovarian cancer subtype, primarily driven by TP53 mutations and chromosome instability (CIN). Read more
(Bicentenary) Examining the role of G-quadruplexes in genetic disorders to discover new diseases and mechanisms
BACKGROUND. Although the classic Watson and Crick double helix structure is well known, DNA also forms several other non-classical structures, called non-B DNA DNA confirmations. Read more
PhD Studentship in Cardiovascular Development: “Cell interactions in fourth pharyngeal arch artery morphogenesis”, funded by the British Heart Foundation.
Award Summary. 100% of home tuition fees paid and an annual stipend (living expenses) starting at £19,919. Additional funding is available to cover research costs and travel to conferences. . Read more
Defects in protein methylation in familial ALS: a therapeutic target of broad relevance?
Motor Neuron Disease (MND) is a devastating condition with no cure and very little in the way of treatments available. Read more
How does a mammalian cell physically organise the complex processes of gene expression and regulation?
Accurate gene expression and regulation in mammalian cells is a hugely complex process, essential for cellular and organismal homeostasis. Read more
Engineering an in vitro human embryo implantation platform to study pathologies arising in early pregnancy - S3.5-SMP-Lucas
Embryo implantation is the step in early pregnancy where the founding tissue of the placenta from the embryo, called the trophoblast, establishes a physical connection with the mother at the inner lining of the uterus, called the endometrium. Read more
Epigenetics of early human development: From molecular mechanisms to regenerative medicine
Secondary supervisor: Dr Andrew Nelson, School of Life Sciences / Cell and Developmental Biology Cluster, University of Warwick. Read more
