Are you holding Master\u2019s degree and looking for fully funded PhD positions? King’s College London, England invites online application for multiple funded PhD Programs \/ fully funded PhD positions in various research areas.<\/span><\/p>\n Candidates interested in fully funded PhD positions can check the details and may apply as soon as possible. Interested and eligible applicants may submit their online application for PhD programs via the University\u2019s Online Application Portal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This project will focus on the spatiotemporal regulation of the phosphatases PTPRA and PRL-2, both of which can bind membranes. Using CRISPR and RNAi-based approaches, we will replace these proteins in mammalian cell lines with truncated, mutant and fluorescently tagged variants and assay for localisation to the virus, cell membrane and the impact on actin dynamics. To identify interactors and substrates of PTPRA and PRL-2, we will use proximity-labelling and mass-spectrometry to identify host and viral, protein and lipidic interactors. Candidate interactions will be verified in cells by immunoprecipitation and co-labelling, and functionally tested in infected and uninfected cells.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a chronic multisystem disease, which affects ~30% of the general population and more than 80% of morbidly obese people. Studies have reported the negative effects that an unhealthy diet and obesity can have on brain function. It is now also known that MASLD increases the risk of developing depression, Parkinson\u2019s and Alzheimer\u2019s disease. We recently found that accumulation of liver fat causes a decrease in oxygen to the brain and inflammation to brain tissue. Specifically, MASLD affected the number and thickness of brain blood vessels, delivering less oxygen, with brain cells consuming more oxygen due to inflammation. This led to lower brain oxygen levels, which alone could be responsible for the increase risk of dementia seen in MASLD patients.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Follow FellowshipBard for daily updates! <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Facebook<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Twitter<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Linkedin<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Telegram Channel<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n The general principles of hydrodynamics give a powerful framework to understand large-scale behaviours, much beyond hydrodynamics from textbooks. For instance, in integrable systems, which admit many more conservation laws than the usual energy and momentum, the hydrodynamic equations are very different – the theory is called Generalised Hydrodynamics. Most interestingly, in general, there are powerful “hydrodynamic field theories” to describe fluctuations, which show unusual non-equilibrium effects. The project will explore correlations and fluctuations at large scales using and extending these powerful new theories.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This project will focus on the development and analysis of efficient and robust optimisation algorithms for the solution of general or application-directed nonlinear (possibly stochastic, non-smooth, or nonconvex) continuous optimisation problems of large-scale (i.e., problems with millions to billions to variables). This research will involve deriving novel first- and\/or second-order optimisation methods, conducting convergence analyses and developing associated efficient implementations.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Software verification techniques have been successfully used to prove correctness of low-level programs, but verification of high-level programming languages is challenging: it requires reasoning about name binding (e.g., visible\/hidden channel names, scoping rules defining local and global variable names, parameter passing and substitution of values for variables). A standard approach to deal with name binding in verification tasks is to replace names with numerical codes (de Bruijn indices). While this avoids some of the difficulties of reasoning about names in programs, conducting a formalisation in de Bruijn style is labour-intensive and imposes a significant overhead to comprehending and reusing proofs.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The project is in Probability Theory and will consist of the study and mathematical analysis of problems involving interacting particle systems, percolation or mixing time of Markov chains. All candidates with interest in the above areas and a solid background in Probability Theory are encouraged to apply.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Complex systems are made of a large number of components intricately interacting with each other. Even when the components are well understood in isolation, it is a great challenge to determine the emergent behaviour that results from their interactions. Models of complex systems are often prescribed by a network where each node represents a component\/unit and where the links prescribe the structure of the interactions among them. Changes in the interaction structure have far reaching effects.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Start Up Studentship \u2013 In storytelling, characters are the heartbeat of the narrative. Every action, choice, and conflict stems from who the characters are, what they want, and what they fear. A character-centric story places the individual at the centre, focusing not just on the plot, but on the emotional arcs, personal growth, and relationships that drive the narrative forward. However, in current research on large language models, the generated content is typically written in the third person and lacks interactivity.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Infertility is a global concern, affecting approximatively 1 in 6 couples who are trying to conceive. In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is an effective fertility treatment; however, worldwide only a privileged 2% of the clinically infertile can access IVF. In the UK, approximatively 60% of the couple who could benefit from IVF still do not have access to treatment and most UK patients end up paying out of pocket due to limited public funds. The high cost of treatment, together with the low success rate of around 33%, prohibit the widespread use of IVF. The proposed project is part of a collaboration between King\u2019s College London and Conceivable Life Sciences, partners who co-fund the research. Conceivable aims to revolutionise IVF by providing end-to-end automation of the IVF lab. A radical approach wherein the full IVF pipeline is being reconsidered and modernised with the help of robotics and artificial intelligence is undertaken.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The Music Theranostics Laboratory has a PhD opportunity for research at the intersection of music science, data science, and cardiovascular science. The Lab, joint between the School of Biomedical Engineering and Imaging Sciences and Department of Engineering, focuses on digital music-based research in cardiovascular therapeutics and precision diagnostics. The Lab, to be in St Thomas\u2019 Hospital, is equipped with a reproducing piano for designing and rendering music-based interventions and with a range of sensors for capturing and recording concurrent cardiovascular parameters for music and heart research.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n This project will use data-driven computational tools to design and characterise optimised mixed conductors for bioelectronics. The PhD candidate will collaborate closely with experimental partners working on synthesis\/characterisation of organic mixed conductors, integrating their insight in computational models. The project will result in new optimised materials and workflows and fundamental design rules for mixed conductors. The knowledge developed throughout this project will translate to applications such as energy storage, neuromorphic computing or drug delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n1.
