Research Fellow in DNA Replication, DNA Damage and Repair at the University of Birmingham University of Birmingham in United Kingdom

Fully funded competitive PhD studentship available in the team of Professor Aga Gambus at the University of Birmingham. The project focuses on regulation of p97 unfoldase in the context of DNA replication and ubiquitylation. The research is interdisciplinary and combines biochemistry, structural biology, and cell biology, making it a strong fit for candidates interested in DNA metabolism and protein regulation. The studentship is offered through the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Part...

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 Dundee in the Faculty of Life Sciences on the project EASTBIO - Uncovering the non-canonical proteolytic activity of Deubiquitinating enzymes . This discovery-driven PhD sits at the interface of biochemistry , structural biology , cell biology , biophysics , and proteomics . The project focuses on ubiquitin-deconjugating enzymes (DUBs), especially the USP family, and their newly identified non-canonical “cleave-to-modify” activity. The research aims to define...

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...

PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute with Dr Peter Rosenthal on cryomicroscopy of lipid-enveloped virus entry and assembly . The project sits at the intersection of structural biology , virology , cell biology , and biophysics , with a strong emphasis on cryo-EM , cryo-ET , and related imaging/computational methods. The research aims to directly image key steps in infection by lipid-enveloped viruses such as influenza and retroviruses . Topics include virus entry, receptor binding, mem...
