PhD funding is available via a number of mechanisms –
(i) EPSRC Doctoral Training Account Studentships mainly for UK and sometimes EU students (Currently available:
New spectroscopic methods for probing the structure and function of key molecular assemblies involved in bacterial cell division (the link takes you to the FindaPhD.com advertisement)
(ii) MOAC Doctral Training Centre (this is a 4 year MSc+PhD programme where you are encouraged to undertake multi-disciplinary research)
If you are interested in any of these options contact us to discuss them.
(iii) Other: with options depending on your background and circumstances.
We are a group working in bioanalytical and biophysical chemistry. Our main areas are spectroscopy, particularly ultra-violet spectroscopy including circular and linear dichroism. The samples we study include a wide range of proteins, their interactions with DNA and carbon nanotubes. We also develop instrumentation, particularly for linear dichroism.
Our backgrounds are diverse. Alongside chemistry, there are group members who have trained in mathematics, biology and physics departments, with a wide range of expertise and experience. We are always open to new ideas and collaborations to develop the techniques and instruments we work with.
PhD funding is available for UK students on the MOAC PhD programme. www.warwick.ac.uk/go/moac
The next Circular Dichroism and Linear Dichroism workshop will be from 9-13 September 2013. Go to the CD & LD workshop page for more information.
