PhD in Antimicrobial Resistance Evolution, Plasmid Copy Number and Gene Duplications University of Bath in United Kingdom

Funded PhD project at the University of Bristol within the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership . This project focuses on HIV transmission and the impact of innovations in preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) , using mathematical modelling to study oral and injectable PrEP in the context of structural and behavioural complexity. The research will examine adherence, risk perception, behaviour-driven infectious disease dynamics, and the real-world policy impact of PrEP. Research theme: Populatio...

Funded PhD opportunity at the University of Bristol in the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership. This project, supervised by Dr Lavinia Paternoster, focuses on the genetic causes of skin disease using genome-wide association studies (GWAS) , multi-ancestry fine-mapping , multi-omic integration , and large-scale data analysis. The work aims to identify causal variants, effector genes, biological pathways, and therapeutic targets linked to approximately 100 skin conditions. Research areas/...

PhD opportunity at the University of Bristol within the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership on using genetics to understand early and midlife causes of cardiovascular disease . This project sits at the intersection of genetics , genetic epidemiology , Mendelian randomization , statistics , and medical science . The research asks how age- and trajectory-specific GWAS results can be used in causal inference, how interaction effects across ages or trajectories can be identified from GWAS s...

PhD position at the Institute for Medical Microbiology, Medical Virology and Hygiene, University of Tübingen, in a newly established research group (AG Sattler) working at the interface of machine learning , genomics , bioinformatics , microbiology , and clinical microbiology . The project focuses on antimicrobial resistance diagnostics, including development and clinical evaluation of machine-learning models to detect resistance plasmids directly from routine MALDI-TOF mass spectra, genomic ana...

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute / Teichmann Group, focused on genomics, bioinformatics, immunity, single-cell genomics, spatial genomics, immunology, cell biology, developmental biology, and genetics . The project sits in Professor Sarah Teichmann’s group, which studies how human cells are organized, how they communicate, and how these processes shape health and disease. The lab is a major contributor to the Human Cell Atlas and is especially i...
