Exciting news as we have\u00a03<\/strong> new PhD project opportunities advertised via the North West Bio DTP program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are projects with Elizabete, Marj, and Sam. These projects are intended to be Lancaster-based, but with strong links to partner institutions and the opportunity to spend at least some of the time working with co-supervisors based at these partner institutions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Elizabete’s<\/a> project is around Rubisco activase and thermal tolerance using biochemical, structural, and computational approaches, full details here: ENGINEERING PLANT RUBISCO ACTIVASE FOR THERMAL TOLERANCE<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Marj’s<\/a> project is contributing to ongoing work looking at engineering C2 photosynthesis into C3 plants using a synthetic biology approach.\u00a0\"\"Full details here: RECREATING COMPONENTS OF C2 PHOTOSYNTHESIS IN ARABIDOPSIS<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sam’s<\/a> project is looking at Barley and how it might cope with stress under future high CO2 conditions, using a range of techniques including physiology, you can find more details here: TOMORROW NEVER DIES: WILL A HIGH CO2 WORLD MEAN LESS STRESS FOR BARLEY?<\/a><\/p>\n
