PhD in Sex-Specific Phage Therapy for Conflict Wound Healing University of Southampton in United Kingdom

Queen’s University Belfast is offering a fully funded PhD investigating how microbes interact and how antibiotic resistance evolves. The project examines the evolution of the commensal microbiome under repeated exposure to pathogens, with particular attention to how antibiotic resistance influences these outcomes. The research will be based in the School of Biological Sciences at Queen’s University Belfast. The project is led by Rachel Wheatley, a UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and Group Leader, wit...
