Fully Funded PhD in Oral Disease, Host-Bacterial Interactions, and Single-Cell Sequencing University of Glasgow in United Kingdom

Jennifer Malcolm, Lecturer in Biomedical Science at the University of Glasgow, is advertising a fully funded PhD opportunity in oral disease, host-bacterial interactions, immune regulation, and single-cell sequencing.

The project will investigate how oral bacteria interact with circulating immune cells and how these interactions influence immune behaviour, with the broader goal of understanding the links between periodontitis, oral inflammation, and systemic disease. The work is a collaboration between the University of Glasgow Dental School and industry partner Haleon.

This opportunity is aimed at UK home students. The post does not list detailed academic prerequisites, but the research theme suggests a strong fit for candidates interested in biomedical science, immunology, oral health, and sequencing-based approaches.

Funding is described as fully funded. No stipend amount, tuition breakdown, or deadline is given in the post.

Interested applicants are directed to the FindAPhD listing linked in the post for application details and submission instructions.
