We are Recruiting – PhD positions available to start October 2016

We are recruiting PhD students to work on any of our research areas of interest:

• Stimuli-responsive nanomaterials as imaging probes to detect microbial pathogens.
• Nanomaterials to interfere with ‘non-conventional’ targets of bacterial infection such as adhesion, quorum sensing or bacterial membranes.
• Functional nanomaterials for the delivery of conventional antibiotics in a targeted way.

These PhD studentships are funded through the MIBTP (Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership). This is a 1 year Masters, followed by 3 Year PhD programme and each year (stipend and fees) is fully funded.  The MIBTP is a highly competitive and prestigious PhD programme and early application is essential. Deadline for application is 10th of January 2016.
