The MRC Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP) at Sheffield Hallam University, in partnership with Lancaster University, is now accepting applications for a 4-year PhD program starting in October 2026. This DTP offers nearly 40 projects across a range of translational research themes, including neglected tropical diseases, snakebite, resistance research and management, maternal, newborn and child health, vector biology, drug discovery and development, health policy, and lung health and tuberculosis. The program is designed to develop 'bridge scientists' who can translate scientific innovation into real-world health benefits, particularly for vulnerable communities globally. Applicants from diverse academic backgrounds who are passionate about global and public health are encouraged to apply. The DTP provides a unique opportunity to engage in cutting-edge research with a strong focus on translational impact. Funding is provided through the MRC, typically covering tuition and a stipend for the duration of the program. For more information and to apply, visit the provided link.
