About this position
Two exciting PhD opportunities are available in the field of extracellular vesicles (EVs) through the BBSRC Yorkshire Bioscience Doctoral Training Partnership (YBDTP). These projects are collaborative efforts between Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Sheffield, focusing on cutting-edge research topics such as cross-kingdom communication and single EV detection. The research aims to advance our understanding of EV biology, with potential applications in biotechnology, molecular biology, and biomedical sciences.
The YBDTP brings together leading bioscience research across Yorkshire and Teesside, supported by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and partner universities. The program is designed to train the next generation of bioscientists, equipping them with skills for careers in academia, industry, policy, and civil society. Students will benefit from access to centres of excellence, industry collaborations, and expert supervision.
Applicants should have a strong background in biology, biomedical sciences, or a related field, and an interest in extracellular vesicle biology or single molecule detection. The studentships are fully funded for eligible UK students, covering tuition fees and a stipend at the UKRI rate. For more information on the projects and application process, visit the YBDTP website or the FindAPhD project page. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact the supervisors for further details.
