Biology
The Department of Genetics and Genome Biology at the University of Leicester offers research supervision for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Biology.

Biological Sciences
Biological Sciences at the University of Reading is the investigation of the web of life, from cellular processes to whole organisms, including how they interact with one other and the environment.

Biology
This Biology PhD programme from Newcastle University research projects in our three main research areas of biodiversity and conservation, agri-environment, and microbiology.

Microbiology (Medical Sciences)
Microbiology (Medical Sciences) is a well-funded research area at Newcastle University. This creates a vibrant and dynamic environment for postgraduate study.

Microbiology (Biological Sciences)
This Microbiology (Biological Sciences) MPhil PhD programme from Newcastle University is a well-funded research area. This creates a vibrant and dynamic environment for postgraduate study.

Biological Sciences
This Biological Sciences PhD programme from the University of Huddersfield allows you to explore and pursue a research project built around a substantial piece of work, which has to show evidence of original contribution to knowledge.

Biosciences
Our Biosciences academics at Brunel University of London are internationally renowned scientists in their fields of expertise and are involved in making major advances and breakthroughs in human diseases and syndromes, including breast, prostate and skin cancer, leukaemia, progeria (premature ageing), tuberculosis, malaria, aspergillus infection, trinucleotide repeat diseases and normal ageing.

Biological Sciences
Our Biological Sciences PhD programme at Queen Mary University of London offers students the opportunity to conduct research within a wide range of areas.

Biosciences
This Biosciences degree from the University of Gloucestershire will enable you to undertake cutting-edge scientific research in a supportive and caring environment.

Synthetic Biology
The overall aim of the Synthetic Biology degree offered at Brunel University of London is to address major environmental, health and societal challenges by engineering biological systems such that they display functions that do not exist in nature, as well as re-designing existing biological systems so that they perform new functions.

Life Sciences (Integrated)
Environmental factors influence our health and wellbeing, as well as affect ecosystems and wildlife. An intimate understanding of such factors – chemical substances, for example, or changes in radiation or temperature – is urgently needed to better understand disease trends in humans and adverse effects on wildlife. Life Sciences (Integrated) is offered at Brunel University of London.

Quantum Biology
The Quantum Biology PhD programme at the University of Surrey offers a unique opportunity to explore the fascinating interface between quantum physics and biology, with the potential to uncover new insights into the fundamental principles of life and advance technologies in fields such as medicine, biotechnology, and beyond.

Biological Sciences
Work with a supportive team of expert academics and use the latest facilities on MPhil or PhD biological sciences research. We offer a Biological Sciences degree at the University of Southampton.

Biological Sciences
The Biological Sciences from University of Bristol makes a vital research contribution, while developing skills and receiving training in communication, outreach, statistics, scientific writing and career planning.

Molecular and Cell Biology
The Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of Leicester offers research supervision for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Molecular and Cell Biology.
