We have 13 PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Non-European Students in York
Late-Stage Oxygenation of Medicinally Important Bridged Bicyclic Hydrocarbons using Unspecific Peroxygenases (UPOs)
We will establish methods for the synthesis of novel, medicinally important bridged bicyclic hydrocarbon (BBH) scaffolds using late-stage oxygenation enabled by unspecific peroxygenase (UPO) enzymes. Read more
Metal-free catalysis to make and break C-F bonds
Fluorine-containing molecules are essential in a wide range of applications, including in many pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Read more
Stable Organometallic Gels for sp3-sp2 and sp2-sp2 Negishi Cross-Coupling
Air- and moisture-sensitive organometallic reagents are a key tool in modern synthetic chemistry and enable a wide range of powerful synthetic transformations. Read more
An exploration of “greener” alternatives for oligonucleotide synthesis
The solid phase synthesis of oligonucleotides, historically conducted on controlled pore glass, but more recently on polystyrene, typically proceeds in a 3′ to 5′ direction by a four-step synthesis cycle with each step followed by a solvent wash. Read more
Functional Sugar-derived Polymers for Sustainable Agricultural Applications
Beyond plastics, polymers play a vital role in our lives as key ingredients of liquid formulations. Read more
Green Polymers from Sugars towards Polyethylene-Like Materials
Polymers are widespread in modern society as they produce light, strong, and cheap plastic materials, with an ever-increasing demand, which are critical to many technologies from consumer goods, electronics to healthcare. Read more
Systematic Exploration of 3D Pharmaceutical Space using 3D Bifunctional Building Blocks
There is much interest in 3D heterocyclic scaffolds for medicinal chemistry. Within fragment-based drug discovery, we are developing a synthetic platform to enable the elaboration of 2D fragments into 3D lead compounds, addressing limitations highlighted by industry. Read more
Frequency and phase stabilisation of lasers and its applications
Research Group:
Quantum science and technologies
The University of York is seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join one of its cutting-edge experimental laboratories for research in stabilisation of laser systems. Read more
Deconstructing biofilms
Research Group:
Physics of Life
Colonies of bacteria form biofilms to protect themselves from outside threats, like antibiotics, by making an extracellular matrix. Read more
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Chemical Synthesis for a Healthy Planet (CSHP CDT)
Up to 16 fully funded four-year studentships available every year. Applications for entry in Oct 2025 are now OPEN!. Read more
Studying strong interaction with polarised probes
Research Group:
Nuclear Physics
The focus of this project is to exploit the world’s leading electromagnetic (EM) beam facility (MAMI) to elucidate the fundamental nature of hadrons, nuclei and nuclear matter. Read more
Exploring medical isotopes production with the photon beams
Research Group:
Healthcare Engineering
There is a growing demand for radioactive isotopes to be employed both in treatment and diagnostics. Suitable isotopes need to be producable in sufficiently large quantities and at affordable price. Read more
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Process Industries: Net Zero
These PhD projects will train the next generation of process and chemical engineers, and chemists, to develop the new processes, process technologies and green chemistries required for the process industries' transition to Net Zero. Read more
