About this position
Funded PhD opportunity at Newcastle University in Programming Matter: Dynamic DNA Data Structures for Molecular Information Storage and Computing.
This interdisciplinary PhD sits within the EnDROIDS programme and brings together computer science, synthetic biology, engineering biology, and DNA/RNA nanotechnology. The project combines computational design, modelling, and optimisation with experimental implementation of DNA/RNA systems and molecular circuits.
The supervisor/poster is Natalio Krasnogor, Professor of Computing Science & Synthetic Biology at Newcastle University. The post welcomes candidates with either computational or experimental experience; you do not need to arrive with expertise in both. Strong applicants from computing, computational biology, synthetic/engineering biology, molecular biology, chemistry, DNA/RNA nanotechnology, or related areas are encouraged to apply.
Eligibility: UK Home students, or EU applicants with settled/pre-settled status who meet the relevant residency criteria.
Deadline: 30 September 2026.
Apply: Use the application link provided in the post for full details and submission instructions.
