We have 66 viruses PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Control and inhibition of virus replication

The Tuplin laboratory utilises a range of cutting-edge approaches to investigate how arboviruses - specifically Chikungunya, Dengue and Zika viruses - control replication and translation of their genomes through interactions between RNA structures, host cell proteins and non-coding RNA, and the potential of such RNA elements/interactions as novel therapeutic targets.

Investigation of host-virus interactions

The School of Molecular and Cellular Biology invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25 in the area of molecular virology. Read more

Self-funded PhD- Understanding Cell Biology through Imaging

We study the trafficking and interaction of molecules and structures inside cells. Extracellular signals need to be processed in a correct manner for a cell to function properly. Read more

Self-funded MSc R: Understanding Cell Biology Through Imaging

We study the trafficking and interaction of molecules and structures inside cells. Extracellular signals need to be processed in a correct manner for a cell to function properly. Read more

Self-funded PhD- Understanding the molecular mechanism of a bacterial genome defence system and its synergy with CRISPR-Cas

Prokaryotes have evolved over billions of years alongside their viruses, the bacteriophages, or “phages”. To prevent viral infection, prokaryotes have evolved rudimentary immune mechanisms, the most widespread and well-studied of which are the Restriction-Modification and the CRISPR-Cas enzymes.

Developing in vitro techniques to investigate host-parasite interactions in shrimps

In the heart of Asia's thriving shrimp industry lies a silent threat that undermines both economic vitality and food security. devastating diseases caused by viruses and other microbial pathogens, notably gregarine apicomplexans. Read more

SLS 1: Human lung 3D models to assess antiviral effects of novel and sustainable compounds against SARS-CoV-2 variants

We are looking for a PhD student to develop 3D models of the human breathing lung. The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the resulting Covid pandemic has highlighted the need for effective biological methods to assess viral infectivity and potential antiviral drug candidates. Read more

How does the dynamic intra-membrane aggregation of phage lysis proteins kill bacterial pathogens?

This is an interdisciplinary project. It will provide a unique opportunity to obtain training in a wide range of interdisciplinary skills, including protein engineering techniques, protein purification, atomic force microscopy, neutron reflection and scattering as well as molecular dynamics simulations.
