Using spider venoms to develop novel, safer, insecticides for crop protection
For protecting crops, neonicotinoids have become the most widely used class of insecticides in the world. However, their use has been restricted in the European Union amidst fears that they are having adverse effects on pollinators such as the honey bee, Apis mellifera. Read more
Assessment of pathogen impacts on novel forestry species and provenances in the UK to aid understanding of future commercial potential
Forests in the UK are in a vulnerable position as epidemics of invasive pathogens such as Phytophthora ramorum on larches and Dothistroma septosporum on pines have narrowed the range of commercially viable timber species. Read more
The Structural and Functional Basis of Defective X-Gating in a Novel TASK-1 Channelopathy Associated with Sleep Apnea
This DPhil (PhD) studentship presents an excellent opportunity for world-class graduate training in the area of ion channel structural biology, biophysics, biochemistry, and drug discovery. Read more
Improving molecular pharming with pathogen-derived effectors
The transient expression of proteins in plants offers unprecedented opportunities for the fast, safe, cheap and flexible production of vaccines, therapeutic antibodies and research proteins. Read more
The Evotron: an experimental evolution system for investigating and predicting agrochemical resistance
The overall aim of this work is to establish a novel experimental paradigm for investigating and predicting the evolution of agrochemical resistance, which currently poses a significant threat to global food security. Read more
Faraday Institution funded D.Phil. studentship in cathode development and optimisation for high-power sodium-ion batteries.
Looking for a battery related career that contributes to creating a sustainable future? Keen to join a dynamic community of pioneering battery researchers seeking to find solutions to support a fully electric future?. Read more
Research Studentship in Experimental Methods for Dynamic Measurement and Modelling of Offshore Wind Structures
Research Studentship in Experimental Methods for Dynamic Measurement and Modelling of Offshore Wind Structures. 4-year DPhil (PhD) studentship starting October 2022. Read more
Evaluating use of methods for vaccine effectiveness research using real world data (NDORMS 2022/7)
As COVID-19 vaccines are being rolled out globally, there is an increasing use of different study designs to evaluate real-world performance of vaccines, such as case-control study design, cohort study design, test-negative design, and screening methods. Read more
Delivering an ethinically diverse atlas of the inflamed and healthy human knee (NDORMS 2022/6)
Worldwide, 20-33% of people live with painful and disabling musculoskeletal diseases. Diseases occur in all joints and particularly affect soft tissues especially the tendons, synovium, ligaments or fibrocartilage. Read more
Towards equity in medicine with big health data, epidemiology, and artificial intelligence (NDORMS 2022/5)
The Covid pandemic has highlighted inequalities in health systems around the world. However, inequity is not limited to the pandemic – it is in fact a long-standing and multifaceted issue. Read more
Understanding the clonality of Multiple Myeloma drug resistance mechanisms using long-read single-cell sequencing (NDORMS 2022/4)
Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of plasma cells and is the second most prevalent haematological malignancy worldwide, with varied response rates to treatment and a mean survival age of 4-5 years. Read more
Assessing the generalisability of trial findings using large orthopaedic population studies (NDORMS 2022/3)
Randomised trials (RCTs) are widely accepted as the preferred approach to evaluating health care interventions. However, the clinical relevance and generalisability of the findings are often disputed. Read more
Defining protein degradation machinery in the endoplasmic reticulum underlying resistance mechanisms in cancer (NDORMS 2022/2)
Cellular stress is a hallmark of cancers. The restorative homeostatic response mechanisms that often become constitutively engaged, serve to adapt populations to hyperproliferative and metabolically dysregulated states, stabilise malignancy, and elevate resistance to therapeutic agents. Read more
Targeting TFEB for the treatment of Osteoarthritis (NDORMS 2022/1)
Population ageing is becoming one of the most significant social transformations of this century which impacts different sectors of society including labour force and financial resources Although the increase in life span is one of the greatest achievements of humanity, age-related diseases, such as Osteoarthritis (OA), limit health span.
