PhD in Machine Learning Guided Sustainable Automated Synthesis and Target-Based Screening of Metal-Based Antibiotics University of York in United Kingdom

Master 2 internship opportunity in the Pharmacy department of UFR3S at the University of Lille , France. The project focuses on accelerated virtual screening of the GPR35 receptor for inflammatory bowel disease , with an emphasis on identifying new selective GPR35 agonists, ideally biased toward the anti-inflammatory β-arrestin-2 pathway. The intern will work with Corentin Bedart in the In silico Lille research group (Inserm Unit U1286 INFINITE). Planned work includes: developing a complete deep...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leicester in AI-designed binders, secretome research, and discovery proteomics . This funded CASE PhD project explores whether AI-designed mini-binders can be made selective enough to recognize the right protein target in complex biological samples. The work focuses on the secretome and aims to create new tools for discovery science and future diagnostics. You will use existing proteomic datasets to identify secreted proteins of interest, design binders with ...

PhD opportunity at Queen's University Belfast in Engineering Bioactive Peptides for Vaginal Microbiome Restoration and Sustained Vaginal Delivery . This funded PhD sits in the School of Biological Sciences and is supported by the NorthWestBio DTP . The project investigates how engineered bioactive peptides can selectively shift disrupted vaginal microbiome models toward a more protective state, with a focus on vaginal microbiome , bioactive peptides , biofilm science , microbiology , epithelial ...

This interdisciplinary studentship sits within the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Chemical Synthesis for a Healthy Planet (CSHP CDT) and combines machine learning , automated synthesis , robotics , antibiotic discovery , and inorganic chemistry . The project focuses on developing metal-based antibiotics using sustainable high-throug...

PepPERMIT is a CDT studentship project at Imperial College London combining experimental peptide science with machine learning to understand how peptides enter living cells. The research will systematically investigate peptide cellular uptake using high-throughput live-cell liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and computational analysis. The student will work on laboratory screening of peptides, peptide synthesis and the generation of chemical datasets describing peptide properties an...
