PhD Studentship in Targeted Protein Degradation and Platelet Signaling at University of Bristol University of Bristol in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at Queen's University Belfast and the University of Glasgow in food chemistry, metabolomics, intestinal epithelial biology, and mammalian metabolism . This funded BBSRC CASE studentship investigates how meat-derived nitrite metabolites and other N-nitroso compounds affect metabolic homeostasis and intestinal epithelial adaptation . The project compares standard cured and nitrite-free meat matrices and explores how dietary components regulate tissue resilience and systemic metabol...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leicester in AI-designed binders, secretome research, and discovery proteomics . This funded CASE PhD project explores whether AI-designed mini-binders can be made selective enough to recognize the right protein target in complex biological samples. The work focuses on the secretome and aims to create new tools for discovery science and future diagnostics. You will use existing proteomic datasets to identify secreted proteins of interest, design binders with ...

PhD opportunity in molecular characterisation of the protein S-acylation machinery at Coventry University within the Centre for Discoveries in Life Sciences and the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership (MIBTP) . This funded PhD project investigates protein S-acylation (palmitoylation) , a reversible post-translational modification that regulates protein localisation, stability, trafficking, and activity. The project aims to define the molecular interactions between the S-acylati...
