PhD in Machine Learning for Finding Macromolecules in Cells Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology in United Kingdom

University of Oxford is recruiting two Postdoctoral Researchers in advanced image analysis , machine learning , and brain imaging . The project focuses on longitudinal analysis of UK Biobank brain imaging data, including development of image processing algorithms, software, and AI methods for two-timepoint datasets. The work is based in the OxCIN (FMRIB) Analysis Group at Oxford, a leading brain image analysis group known for developing FSL and the FMRIB Biobank Pipeline (FBP) . The role contrib...

PhD opportunity in AI-led protein design for engineering disease resistance at the John Innes Centre, Norwich, United Kingdom, through the Norwich Research Park Biosciences Doctoral Training Programme (NRPDTP). This project sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence, computational protein design, plant biology, microbiology, molecular biology, structural biology, and genetic engineering . The research aims to understand how plant immune receptors detect pathogen molecules and how these ...

PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute, London, United Kingdom in structural biology, virology, biochemistry, biophysics, and molecular biology . This funded PhD project, supervised by Dr I Taylor , focuses on the ZAP antiviral response and how the proteins ZAP, KHNYN, and Trim25 assemble into molecular complexes that recognize viral RNA and trigger RNA degradation. The project aims to uncover the structure and mechanism of this antiviral system using protein purification, RNA-binding as...

PhD opportunity at the University of Warwick in Automated Closed-Loop Peptide Drug Discovery to Replace Antibodies . This funded PhD project sits at the intersection of biology , computer science , machine learning , molecular biology , and cell biology . The project aims to build a fully automated design-build-test-learn pipeline for discovering short peptide antibody-mimetics that can serve as robust, low-cost alternatives to antibodies in therapeutics and lateral flow diagnostics. Working wit...

Funded PhD opportunity at the University of Bristol in vascular morphology and haemodynamic risk of intracranial aneurysm in aortic coarctation . This project sits within the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership and is part of the Cardiometabolic Disease research theme. It is a dry lab PhD that combines patient-specific 3D vascular reconstruction , machine learning , and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to study how aortic and cerebrovascular morphology and blood flow patterns relate t...
