PhD Studentship: Phage Power – Optimising Treatments for Bacterial Co-Infections at the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom . This doctoral project sits within the GW4 BioMed3 MRC Doctoral Landscape Programme and focuses on phage therapy , bacterial co-infections , antibiotic resistance , and next-generation antimicrobial treatment . The research asks how phages can be used to treat infections involving multiple bacterial species and whether removing one pathogen could allow another to fl...

PhD Studentship in Microbiology at the University of Cambridge, Department of Chemistry, with Professor Erwin Reisner. The project sits in the Reisner Laboratory and focuses on microbiology, biochemistry, chemistry, and biohybrid technologies. The research aims to engineer live cells to convert carbon dioxide and other feedstock chemicals into bespoke complex chemicals, and to interface these cells with light-harvesting semiconductor systems for semi-artificial photosynthesis of organic chemical...
