Fully Funded PhD Studentships in Chemical Biology and RNA Therapeutics at the University of Strathclyde University of Strathclyde in United Kingdom

P22) New tools for bioconjugation using novel rearrangement reactions is a fully funded PhD project at the University of York , delivered through the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Chemical Synthesis for a Healthy Planet (CSHP CDT) in partnership with the University of Oxford. The project sits at the interface of organic chemistry , synthetic chemistry , chemical biology , biotechnology , and applications in antibiotics and bacterial PROTACs . The research will develop new sustainable too...

Industry-based PhD studentship at GSK R&D in collaboration with the University of Strathclyde, Department of Chemistry . The programme, titled “Building a Career in Drug Discovery at GSK” , offers PhD research in medicinal chemistry , chemical biology , or structural biophysics and in silico modelling . The project is co-supervised by Strathclyde chemistry academics and a senior GSK scientist, with research aligned to modern drug discovery. Research themes include design and development of moder...

EASTBIO(CASE) PhD project at the University of Edinburgh on engineering fluorescent non-canonical amino acids for quantitative imaging of protein therapeutics trafficking . This project addresses a key question in cell biology and biochemistry: how proteins are sorted, recycled, and degraded in the endolysosomal system, and how engineered biologics behave inside live cells. The research will develop genetically encoded, environment-responsive fluorescent amino acids and use fluorescence lifetime...

PhD position in organic chemistry at Saarland University and HIPS, Saarbrücken, Germany , in AG Wang . The project focuses on novel synthetic methodology , fluorescent probes , and molecular tools for biomedical research , with a strong chemical biology and medicinal chemistry angle. The role is well suited to candidates interested in efficient synthesis and the development of functional probes for biological applications. Eligibility highlights: an MSc in organic chemistry, biochemistry, chemic...

PhD opportunity at the University of Edinburgh in RNA therapeutics , renal tubular cell biology , and luciferase reporter assay development . This EASTBIO/BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership project focuses on building a stable, quantitative screening platform to test RNA therapies in human renal tubular cells. The work aims to solve a key bottleneck in RNA medicine: rapidly and sensitively measuring whether an RNA therapeutic has entered the target cell and silenced its intended gene. The proje...
