Global Excellence and Mobility Scholarship (GEMS)

Monash University Malaysia is advertising a PhD Global Excellence and Mobility Scholarship (GEMS 2027) project on climate change and ESKAPEE pathogen resistance . This is a competition-funded PhD opportunity for students worldwide, based in Subang Jaya, Malaysia . The project uses a mixed-methods design to study how localised climate extremes—especially heatwaves and flooding —affect the prevalence and resistance profiles of ESKAPEE pathogens in a Malaysian hospital catchment area. The quantitat...

PhD Studentship at Newcastle University in modelling the aetiology and spatio-temporal distribution of infectious intestinal disease and antimicrobial resistance across community and healthcare systems in the UK. This project works with the IID3 Study and the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) to analyse national data on gastrointestinal infections, pathogen detection, diagnosis pathways, and antimicrobial resistance. The research will map how infections and resistance vary across time and region...

PhD opportunity at Monash University Malaysia in the project Precision blood-cell biomarkers for early prediction of severe dengue , part of the Global Excellence and Mobility Scholarship (GEMS 2026) . The project focuses on establishing a prospective dengue cohort at University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) to identify early blood-cell signatures that predict severe disease. The research combines immunology , cell biology , virology , bioinformatics , genomics , medical statistics , and machine ...

Monash University Malaysia is advertising a PhD Global Excellence and Mobility Scholarship (GEMS 2027) project on the climate–resistance link , focusing on how environmental stress affects resistant and sensitive Escherichia coli . The project combines microbiology , antimicrobial resistance (AMR) , spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR and Raman), and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to study biochemical and transcriptomic responses under climate-relevant stressors such as elevated temperature. The research also uses...
