PhD in Novel Dynamic Shape Atlasing of Cardiovascular Structures in Congenital Heart Disease University of Bristol in United Kingdom

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...

Funded PhD opportunity at the University of Bristol in targeted gene integration therapy for cystinosis , offered through the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership . This project focuses on cystinosis , a rare genetic condition caused by mutations in the CTNS gene. The research aims to develop a one-time gene therapy approach by integrating a healthy copy of CTNS into cells and testing whether this reduces harmful cystine build-up. The work is positioned within the Cardiometabolic Disease...

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 opportunity at the University of Bristol in Neuroscience & Mental Health , focused on decoding early brain and movement signals to predict outcomes after birth asphyxia . This funded project is part of the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership and is supervised by Dr Ela Chakkarapani . The research will investigate two early indicators of infant brain health: (1) early brain activity in moderate-to-late preterm babies, and (2) video-based assessment of spontaneous movements at 3 month...

Fully funded PhD studentship at Cardiff University in mathematical modelling , calcium signalling , IVF , and computational biology . The project is titled “Decoding calcium signalling during fertilization: a data-driven mathematical modelling framework for a non-invasive IVF diagnostic tool” and will combine mathematical modelling, computational methods, and experimental imaging data to study how calcium signals during fertilization relate to subtle movements of the egg. The aim is to test whet...
