University of Birmingham PhD Studentship

[Full tuition fees plus a stipend of £21,805 per annum for 2026/7.] PhD studentship at the University of Exeter on developing a new variant effect predictor for multiple missense variants in the same protein molecule. This EPSRC-funded project tackles an important challenge in clinical genomics: most variant interpretation tools assess missense changes one at a time, even though many patients carry multiple variants in the same gene or protein. The project will develop and validate a new computa...

[Fees plus stipend of £21,805 per annum for 2026/7.] PhD studentship at the University of Exeter on next-generation machine learning for predicting genetic interactions in cancer, with a specific focus on pancreatic cancer. The project sits at the interface of computational genomics, machine learning, and cancer biology, and is funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC). The research tackles a major challenge in oncology: identifying genetic interactions, including synthetic lethality, that on...

[Funding minimum: Home fees student. Funding maximum: International student subject to gaining an NDM studentship.] PhD Studentship at the University of Oxford focused on understanding the double life of Escherichia coli as both a benign gut commensal and a deadly pathogen. This project, based at the John Radcliffe Hospital , forms part of the wider COHORT study led by Professor Susanna Dunachie in collaboration with the Oxford Vaccine Group and the Ellison Institute of Technology . The COHORT s...

[Home tuition fees plus a Doctoral Stipend for up to 4 years.] PhD Studentship at the University of Exeter on rare variant functional genomics for better understanding, prevention and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. This interdisciplinary studentship focuses on uncovering the genetic architecture and biological mechanisms underlying disabling musculoskeletal conditions such as osteoarthritis and Dupuytren’s contracture. The project combines large-scale human genomics, statistical analysi...
