[Update] Thanks to everyone who got in touch and applied, this round closed on Jan 6th. <\/strong><\/p>\n

We hope to have projects advertised again for the next intake.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Exciting news as we have\u00a02<\/strong> new PhD project opportunities advertised via the North West Bio program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are projects with Sam and Doug. 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

Sam<\/a> is interested in looking at Barley and how it might cope with stress under future high CO2<\/sub> conditions, using a range of techniques including physiology and hyperspectral imaging with collaborators at the James Hutton Institute and University of Strathclyde. You can find more details here: TOMORROW NEVER DIES: WILL A HIGH CO2 WORLD MEAN LESS STRESS FOR BARLEY?<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Doug’s<\/a> project is around understanding more about the role of the potent Rubisco inhibitor CA1P, and how plants synthesise this compound in response to changes in light conditions. It involves techniques like plant biochemistry, proteomics, and metabolomics, in collaboration with colleagues at Queen’s University Belfast. More details are here: Understanding the synthesis and role of the Rubisco inhibitor CA1P<\/a><\/p>\n
