PhD opportunity at Cardiff University in the Cardiff School of Medicine on immune modulation of tonsillar Natural Killer (NK) cell immunity by Group A Streptococcus (GAS) . This project sits at the intersection of medical science, biology, immunology, and infectious disease . The human tonsils are important for generating neutralizing antibodies, yet they can also be a site where GAS persists and contributes to recurrent tonsillitis and invasive infections. The PhD student will investigate wheth...

Research Degree Opportunity at the University of Melbourne PhD project: Immunological mechanisms underlying anti-obesity medication effects in young people: a longitudinal study of inflammation, trained immunity, and anti-infective responses . This project examines how incretin analogues, including GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), affect inflammation, trained immunity, and anti-viral/anti-infective immune responses in young people with obesity. The study is based in paediatrics and sits at the...
