Effects of Human Stem Cell Secretomes and Extracellular Vesicles on Invertebrate Models of Regeneration University of Reading in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity in human haematopoietic stem cell biology at the University of Cambridge , hosted by the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute and the Laurenti Group . The project focuses on how human blood stem cells function in health and disease , including their unique biology compared with other blood cell types, the effects of ageing and inflammation , and what happens during the early stages of cancer development . The lab uses single-cell biology , including functional single-cell assays and sin...

PhD opportunity in stem cells and limb regeneration at the University of Cambridge , hosted by the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute and the Storer Group . The project focuses on cell biology and developmental biology , especially how mammals regenerate the digit tip and why humans can regenerate only limited tissues. The lab studies blastema formation , the transient proliferative cell mass that rebuilds the digit, and aims to uncover the cellular and molecular mechanisms that coordinate regenerati...

PhD opportunity in epithelial cell fate and tumour development at the University of Cambridge , Cambridge Stem Cell Institute, in the Khaled Group led by Professor Walid Khaled . This project focuses on tumour initiation , cancer prevention , lineage tracing , epithelial cell fate , and related questions in cancer biology , cell biology , developmental biology , and stem cell biology . The lab studies early cellular and molecular changes associated with tumour development, with translational aim...

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge / Cambridge Stem Cell Institute in neuroscience , stem cells , developmental biology , and cell biology . The project, “Neurotransmitter signalling to central nervous system progenitor cells,” is led by Professor Ragnhildur Thóra Káradóttir (Káradóttir Group). The research focuses on how oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) sense neuronal activity and neurotransmitter signals, decide whether to differentiate into myelin-producing oligodendrocytes ...

PhD opportunity in Epigenetics, Ageing, and Stem Cells at the University of Cambridge (Cambridge Stem Cell Institute). The Herzog Group, led by Dr Chiara Herzog, is recruiting prospective PhD students interested in epigenetics , DNA methylation , ageing , stem cells , and age-related disease . The project explores how the epigenome stores biological memory across life, how epigenetic changes relate to vulnerability and resilience, and whether epigenetic states can be rewritten to improve stem ce...
