PhD in Retrograde Mitochondrial Signalling, Epigenetic Reprogramming, and Neuroinflammation in Progressive Multiple Sclerosis University of Cambridge in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences on Mitochondrial Genetic Determinants of Multiple Sclerosis . This project investigates how mitochondrial genetic variants influence the outcome of multiple sclerosis (MS) . The research builds on prior genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that have identified more than 200 autosomal variants associated with MS, while extending the analysis to the mitochondrial genome. Using a dedicated mitochondrial var...

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences on neuroinflammatory mediators in the pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury (TBI) . The project investigates how maladaptive inflammation contributes to TBI and aims to identify mechanisms leading to brain swelling, raised intracranial pressure, and neuronal injury . The research integrates protein assays in biological fluids , neuro-intensive care monitoring , and patient outcomes , making it a strong...
