The University of Manchester is offering 12+ fully funded PhD scholarships for international students planning to begin doctoral study in the UK in 2027. The funding package covers full tuition fees, including international tuition fees, an annual living stipend at the UKRI rate, and an additional £1,000 annual stipend enhancement. Awards are expected to support approximately 3.5–4 years of doctoral study. Opportunities are available across two faculties, with additional scholarships in Science ...

Janet Thornton Fellowship is a recurring postdoctoral fellowship scheme offered by the Wellcome Trust. It is designed to support researchers who have taken time out of scientific research and are now seeking an additional route back into high-quality postdoctoral training. The fellowship is framed as an annual award, with one Fellowship awarded each year. The post is open worldwide and is intended for researchers in the life sciences who are ready to re-enter research after a break of 12 months ...

PhD project in chemical biology and microbiology focused on developing new ways to target bacteria by disrupting essential cell division protein interactions . The project addresses the urgent problem of antibiotic resistance and aims to design, synthesise, and test compounds that block protein-protein interactions needed for bacterial growth and spread. The work uses Mycobacterium smegmatis as a harmless model for Mycobacterium tuberculosis , with an emphasis on discovering peptide-based or rel...
