Neuroscience PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK
We have 325 Neuroscience PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK
(MRC DTP CASE) Precision modelling approaches to understand variance in brain plasticity
Life expectancy in the UK has increased by roughly 30 years in the past century and, combined with a decrease in fertility rates, has led to a proportional increase in middle/older aged adults. Read more
(MRC DTP CASE) Developing a cortical organoid model of genetic autism to understand early brain development
Neurodevelopmental conditions including autism and ADHD affect 4-8% of the paediatric population. These conditions present in the preschool period, are highly heritable and can severely affect quality of life, academic and occupational functioning. Read more
Establishing new sport-specific classification rules for athletes with a vision impairment
Research Group:
Vision and Hearing Sciences Research Group
Research Group. Vision and Hearing Sciences Research Group. Proposed supervisory team. Prof Peter Allen. Dr Ash Willmott. Theme. Vision Impairment. Read more
Molecular mechanisms of brain plasticity, degeneration and regeneration
The aim of the project is to discover and test candidate molecular mechanisms underlying structural brain plasticity, degeneration and regeneration. Read more
Development of Novel Miniaturized Device Technologies for Point-of-Need Diagnostics
A PhD Studentship is available for a suitably qualified candidate to conduct research leading to the award of a PhD degree in the fields of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering. Read more
Defining the molecular mechanisms preventing central nervous system axon regeneration after trauma
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in central nervous system trauma and disease (e.g., spinal cord injury, traumatic… Read more
The role of MicroRNAs in neurodegenerative diseases
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in Neuroscience and Neurotrauma to join the team led by Dr Valentina Di Pietro (Dr Valentina Di Pietro - Institute of Inflammation and Ageing - University of Birmingham). Read more
Exploring the cellular and molecular mechanisms mediating myelin formation, injury and repair in the central nervous system
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research on glial cells and their involvement in mechanisms mediating central nervous system development, function and disease states to join the Oligodendrocyte and Myelin Research Group led by Dr Daniel Fulton. Read more
Exploration of the disease sequalae of Gestational Diabetes (Part of the ELEMI Womens Health Program)
Applications are invited for a 3-year self-funded PhD Studentship. GDM is a strategically important topic for women’s health and public welfare. Read more
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches to understand and treat eye disease.
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world, with the number of people affected predicted to increase to 112 million by 2040. Read more
(MRC DTP CASE) Developing new acute treatments for stroke by targeting the cytokine interleukin-1
Acute brain injury caused by stroke is a leading cause of global death and disability. Despite decades of research there is still no widely available effective treatment for stroke, and it remains an area of significant unmet need. Read more
(MRC DTP) Exploring the Impact of Ethnicity on Patient Pathways and Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis: Insights from UK Registry Data
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, leading to a range of physical and cognitive impairments. Read more
PhD in Psychology
Psychology PhDs at a world leading university. Delve into the fascinating world of psychology research at UEA and unlock your potential for exploration and discovery. Read more
(MRC DTP) Dissecting immune networks in barrier tissues and beyond
The immune system maintains tissue health within a variety of tissues and organs throughout the body, from mucosal barrier sites (such as the oral cavity, gut and lung) to the membranes that line the brain (meninges). Read more
(MRC DTP) Investigating brain plasticity in response to brain tumours using simultaneous synaptic Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
This PhD project is best suited for a student with a background in Physics or Engineering wishing to apply their quantitative skills to improve the understanding of the diseased brain. Read more
