About this position

Excellent fully-funded PhD opportunity starting this October in the field of cancer research, drug delivery and extracellular vesicles (EVs) here in Sheffield.

If you (or someone you know) are interested in a multi-disciplinary project combining glycobiology, gold chemistry, and EV biology applied to bowel cancer models, this could be an incredible next step. You'll gain hands-on experience in cancer models, EV retention and delivery, drug synthesis, and advanced imaging techniques.

The project is led by a brilliant team at Sheffield Hallam University spearheaded by our very own EV expert and top bloke Nick Peake
, with collaborative input from industrial partners and other leading experts in the field.

Further details and application link in Nick's post below:

I'm in the fortunate position of being able to recruit a fully funded GTA/PhD studentship in my bowel cancer microenvironment/EV team. To start in October, if you have interests in cancer, drug delivery, EVs, take a look at this multi-disciplinary project which takes some glycobiology and some gold chemistry to a big dose of EVs and applies to our humanised bowel cancer models. A "sweet", "golden" opportunity to look at therapeutic EV retention and delivery - gain skills in cancer models, EV biology, drug synthesis and testing and bioanalytical imaging techniques working with me, Alice Johnson and Alex Males at SHU, with collaborative input from Jason Webber and industrial support from Perkin-Elmer.
