Blood vessels during obesity and metabolic disease University of Leeds in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at Quadram Institute Bioscience through the Norwich Research Park Biosciences Doctoral Training Programme (NRPDTP) in the United Kingdom. The project asks: How does NRP2 keep blood vessels sealed and calm under stress? It focuses on endothelial cells , vascular biology , inflammation , cell biology , and molecular mechanisms that maintain the blood vessel barrier. The student will investigate neuropilin-2 (NRP2) , VE-cadherin , endothelial barrier stability, inflammatory activati...

PhD project at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology with Dr F Randow on non-protein ubiquitylation in infection and physiology . This project explores how ubiquitylation extends beyond proteins to non-protein substrates such as LPS on invading bacteria and poorly branched glycogen . The research connects bacteriology , immunology , molecular biology , and selective autophagy , with implications for host defense, biomolecular quality control, and disease-relev...

PhD opportunity in pathological protein assembly in neurodegenerative diseases at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom . The project is centered on the molecular pathology of neurodegeneration, with a focus on amyloid filament formation by disease-associated proteins such as TDP-43 , annexin A11 , and TAF15 . Two PhD project directions are described. One aims to reproduce pathological protein filament structures in vitro using protein biochemist...

University of Bath is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in an interdisciplinary project focused on mammalian cell biology , molecular biology , chemical biology , and peptide screening . The work will develop innovative intracellular peptide screening technologies to investigate and modulate transcription factor function in living mammalian cells. The post is hosted in Professor Jody Mason's research group at the University of Bath and is funded through a new BBSRC Pioneer Award . The...
