PhD Opportunity in Neurosciences: Dementia with Lewy bodies University of Nottingham in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity: Epithelial Cell Fate and Plasticity at the University of Cambridge , hosted by the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute and led by Dr Maria P. Alcolea . This project sits at the intersection of cell biology , developmental biology , and cancer biology . The Alcolea Group studies how epithelial progenitor cells behave in the mouse oesophagus and how squamous epithelial cell fate changes during homeostasis, injury, and preneoplastic mutation. The research aims to understand mutant clonal...

PhD opportunity at the University of Edinburgh in Host Receptor Evolution as a Barrier to Viral Spillover , offered through the EASTBIO BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership . This project sits at the intersection of cell biology , genetics , molecular biology , and evolutionary analysis . The research aims to identify and characterise viral entry receptors and host factors that influence whether viruses can cross species barriers and cause zoonotic transmission. The student will focus on viruses ...

A funded PhD opportunity is available in mitochondrial biology , intermembrane space biology , and parasitology at Lancaster University . The project is titled “Rewriting the (mitochondrial) rulebook: exploring unusual intermembrane space biology in a deadly parasite” and focuses on the unique mitochondrial biology found in trypanosomes. This is a BBSRC NorthWestBio funded PhD studentship based in Caroline Dewar’s lab at Lancaster University, with collaboration from Prof Konstantinos Tokatlidis ...

Coventry University’s Centre for Discoveries in Life Sciences is advertising a funded PhD project within the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership (MIBTP), a BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership supported by UKRI. The project is titled Decoding class B G-protein-coupled receptor structure and function for drug and focuses on G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) , calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CLR) , RAMPs , receptor folding and trafficking, cell-surface expression, and signall...
