PhD opportunity in pathological protein assembly in neurodegenerative diseases at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom . The project is centered on the molecular pathology of neurodegeneration, with a focus on amyloid filament formation by disease-associated proteins such as TDP-43 , annexin A11 , and TAF15 . Two PhD project directions are described. One aims to reproduce pathological protein filament structures in vitro using protein biochemist...

PhD opportunity: In situ structural biology of cellular adaptation at The Francis Crick Institute in collaboration with University College London . This 2027 joint PhD project is supervised by Dr Peter Rosenthal (Crick) and Dr Amandine Maréchal (UCL). The project sits at the interface of structural biology , mitochondrial biology , bioenergetics , cell biology , microbiology , biochemistry , and biophysics . The research asks how cells adapt to environmental and metabolic stress by remodeling th...
