PhD in Mapping Enhanced Water Density Fluctuations Around Complex Molecules: From Hydrophobic Surfaces to Proteins University of Bristol in United Kingdom

Durham University is advertising a PhD opportunity in the Physics of Life area, focused on the molecular grammar of biomolecular condensates and bacterial aggresome droplets . The project asks how living cells organize molecules into tiny liquid-like droplets, how these structures change physical properties, and how bacteria may use them to survive antibiotics and harsh conditions. The research is highly interdisciplinary and combines single-molecule microscopy , molecular biology , microbiology...
