Postdoc in Sensing Wastewater for Public Health at Cranfield University Cranfield University in United Kingdom

Joshua Lawrence is starting a new group at the University of Warwick School of Life Sciences next September and is advertising two funded PhD opportunities . The lab will be interdisciplinary, combining synthetic biology , electrochemistry , and biophysical methods to map the bioenergetic pathways of microorganisms and engineer them for sustainable biotechnologies. The projects are collaborative with Julie Macpherson and Joseph Beckwith in the Department of Chemistry . Funding is through the Mid...

PhD opportunity at the University of Warwick in a CASE project on combined chemical and biological treatments for man-made plastics . The project sits within the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership and is supervised by Prof Timothy Bugg and Prof Sébastien Perrier . This research combines polymer degradation , microbiology , biochemistry , materials science , and polymer chemistry to develop new approaches for recycling and treatment of plastic waste. The work will investigate c...

Fully funded PhD opportunity in the NorthWest Biosciences Doctoral Training Partnership (NorthWestBio DTP) within the Lamprou Lab, in collaboration with Prof. Clare Hoskins’ research group. Project title: Sustainable Microfluidic Biosensors for Rapid Detection of Foodborne Pathogens. This multidisciplinary PhD sits at the intersection of microfluidics , biosensors , nanotechnology , advanced manufacturing , and sustainable materials . The project aims to develop innovative technologies for rapid...

Postdoctoral Fellow at The University of Texas at Austin, Marine Science Institute This postdoctoral opening is in the Department of Marine Science at the University of Texas at Austin, with the work primarily located in Port Aransas, Texas, and occasional travel to Austin. The project focuses on environmental chemistry , microplastics and nanoplastics , plastic weathering, and the environmental processes that degrade plastics photochemically or biologically. The fellow may also work on natural ...

More PhD opportunities are available in agri-relevant disciplines , including one linked to the poster’s own research theme. The opportunity is part of a fully funded dual scheme involving Nottingham Trent University and University of Nottingham . The highlighted theme is “Nitro-gen(eration): Attaining Resilient Fertilizers for Sustainable Food Production” , co-led by Katalin Kovács (University of Nottingham) and Andy Gill (Nottingham Trent University). This suggests research at the intersection...
