PhD opportunity in quantitative cardiovascular imaging and artificial intelligence at the University of Cambridge, within Team Dewey’s research environment. The opportunity is aimed at research in quantitative cardiovascular imaging, cardiac imaging and AI, with a strong focus on interdisciplinary work and better patient outcomes. The project context is connected to a doctoral training centre funded by the British Heart Foundation and involving the University of Cambridge, the University of Edin...

Fully funded PhD opportunity in precision medicine and health inequalities at the Health Economics and Health Technology Assessment (HEHTA) unit, University of Glasgow. The project will analyse individual participant data from major UK clinical trials to investigate how preventive and treatment strategies can be better targeted. The research aims to improve health outcomes while reducing inequalities, bringing together precision medicine, causal inference, statistics, epidemiology and health eco...

The University of Glasgow is offering a PhD studentship through the MRC DTP in Precision Medicine , based in a cancer research laboratory led by Professor G. Vignir Helgason. The project will investigate the role and function of top-scoring genes identified through a meta-analysis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) leukemia stem-cell datasets, with a particular focus on RXFP1 . The research is centered on understanding gene function in CML leukemia stem cells and may contribute to precision medic...

[AstraZeneca funded studentship with funding from £23,805 p.a. for a 4-year PhD.] This is a collaborative PhD studentship hosted by the Department of Pathology at the University of Cambridge and the AstraZeneca Discovery Centre at Cambridge. The project brings together academic and industry research environments, with the student working across both sites under joint supervision. The research focuses on improved 2A peptide sequences and their use in co-translational separation of polyproteins. T...

Measuring What Matters is a funded PhD project at the University of Portsmouth focused on improving the clinical assessment of individuals with limb difference. The research will bridge the gap between what matters to patients and what is measured in rehabilitation. It will integrate patient-centred, functional and biomechanical outcomes to support more meaningful evaluation of rehabilitation interventions and patient experience. The doctoral researcher will work at the intersection of biomechan...

This fully funded PhD project will investigate innovative approaches to improve the detection of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in people with diabetes . The research will focus on advanced analysis of wearable photoplethysmography (PPG) data, combining digital health, wearable technologies, biomedical signal processing and clinically relevant cardiovascular research. The student will work at the intersection of academia, industry and the NHS on a translational project with potential to imp...

University College London is offering a funded PhD opportunity in Statistical Science on enhancing pharmacometrics model development using causal inference methods . The doctoral project will develop theory and methods for integrating causal inference into pharmacometric modelling, with an application to busulfan in paediatric bone marrow transplantation. The research sits at the intersection of biostatistics, statistical science, pharmacometrics and clinical treatment modelling, offering an opp...
