PhD Studentship: Linking Myeloma Therapies, the Microbiome, and Immune Defence University of East Anglia in United Kingdom

University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is recruiting a Postdoctoral Scholar in clinical nutrition for the Kulkarni Lab at the David Geffen School of Medicine. The project sits at the intersection of mucosal immunology , microbiome research , and intestinal barrier biology , with a focus on immune responses to changing microbiota and disease contexts such as IBD. The lab uses a broad set of experimental and computational approaches, including mouse models , intestinal organoids , flow cytom...

PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute, London, United Kingdom This funded PhD project with Dr Andreas Wack focuses on tissue immunity , immune memory , and the response of the lung to viral and bacterial infections . The project investigates how infections such as influenza and COVID-19 shape lung immunity, epithelial repair, and the long-term behaviour of immune cells, especially monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages. The research sits at the intersection of immunology , microbiology ,...

PhD opportunity at the University of Edinburgh in veterinary immunology , bovine tuberculosis , ocular tuberculosis , cell biology , and immunology . This EASTBIO-funded project is titled “Mapping the ocular immune response to Mycobacterium bovis in cattle” and is based at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies , University of Edinburgh, with collaboration from Moorfields Eye Hospital and University College London . The work focuses on bovine TB pathology in the eye, immune-cell populatio...

PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia (Norwich Medical School) in blood stem cell biology , clonal haematopoiesis , ageing , immunology , genetics , cell biology , bioinformatics , and metabolism . This project, A Hostile Niche: How Mutant Blood Stem Cells Damage Their Healthy Neighbours , is supervised by Dr Jayna Mistry and based in the Mistry and Rushworth Lab at Norwich Medical School, UEA , with collaborators across the Norwich Research Park and the Earlham Institute . The resear...

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge / Cambridge Stem Cell Institute in leukaemic and preleukaemic haemopoietic stem cells . The project is led by Professor George Vassiliou (Vassiliou Group) and focuses on clonal haematopoiesis , telomeres , leukaemia prevention , and the biology of blood stem cells. The research explores how normal haematopoietic stem cells transform into leukaemic stem cells and how this process contributes to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) , myelodysplastic syndrome...
