About this position
PhD in Inflammation Research at The University of Edinburgh, hosted by the Institute for Regeneration and Repair and the Centre for Inflammation Research.
This postgraduate research opportunity sits within a highly interdisciplinary environment focused on inflammation, immunology, wound healing, stem cell biology, regenerative medicine, developmental biology, bioinformatics, and the biology of disease and repair. Research is embedded in the wider IRR community, which also includes the Centre for Regenerative Medicine and the Centre for Reproductive Health at Edinburgh BioQuarter.
Degree options: PhD (full-time 3 years, part-time 6 years) and MScR options are also listed on the programme page.

Application notes: Self-funded applicants should contact a potential supervisor and may need to submit a research proposal. Funded studentships follow project-specific adverts and may require a named supervisor and project title. There is no application fee for this programme.
Location: Edinburgh BioQuarter, Edinburgh, United Kingdom.
