Biophysics (regulation) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 17 Biophysics (regulation) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Structure and function of enzyme complexes involved in post-transcriptional gene regulation

Many proteins in human cells function as part of high molecular weight multi-subunit assemblies. The structure and function of such large molecular machines is often difficult to characterise due to their complexity, low abundance and structural dynamics. Read more

Regulation and mechanics in polarity

Membranes and their protein organization are a frontier in our understanding of cell biology. We focus on polarized trafficking as a model to uncover fundamental mechanisms in the organization of structures at membranes. Read more

Understanding the evolution of gene regulatory networks through biophysical modelling and machine learning

The ability to coordinate the expression of genes within a cell is at the heart of life. When and how much of a specific gene is turned into a protein is essential for organisms to respond to their environment and to manage resources. Read more

The role of regulatory evolution in phage ecology

The regulation of genes crucially determines the fitness and function of all organisms. This is particularly relevant for bacteriophages, the viruses that infect bacteria, as they rely on a tightly scheduled program for a successful infection. Read more

DNA-bending Proteins for Nanotech

  Research Group: Physics of Life
DNA is the molecule that nature uses as genetic material and it rarely exists in a relaxed state inside cells. Read more

Structural investigation of oncogenic splicing factors

More than 90% of human genes can and do express multiple proteins. This is achieved by a process called alternative RNA splicing, which is an essential step in gene expression in mammals. Read more

Ageing to Arrhythmias

Cardiac arrhythmias are a leading cause of sudden death and morbidity. This project aims to identify why they occur in the elderly and novel routes to therapies. Read more

PhD studentship in uncovering the universal physics in soft and living matter

The Universality in Biology group at Imperial College London is offering a fully funded PhD studentship to home students in the field of theoretical biophysics, under the supervision of Dr Chiu Fan Lee. Read more

Untying the knot: Remodelling of G4 structures by the NER machinery- implications in human DNA repair and regulatory pathways

Open PhD position on Genome Stability and Biochemistry. Joint PhD scholarship - St Andrews and Bonn-Biology. Untying the knot. Remodelling of G4 structures by the NER machinery- implications in human DNA repair and regulatory pathways. Read more
