700 PhD programmes in Biology

The PhD program in Arterial Hypertension and Vascular Biology of the University of Padua entails training in both experimental and clinical research. Main topics are vascular biology; endothelial dysfunction; salt/water homeostasis; pathophysiology of blood pressure control; secondary hypertension.

The PhD in Medical Mycology programme at The University of Manchester enables you to undertake a research project that will improve understanding of Medical Mycology.

The primary objective of the Bioethics programme at Masaryk University is to prepare independent professionals who are capable of reflecting upon the ethical, legislative, and social aspects of both biomedicine and biotechnologies, based on their primary field of specialisation.

The Plant Biology and Conservation program at Northwestern University focuses on preparing students for future leadership positions in botanical science and plant conservation. 

The doctoral (PhD) program in Integrated Studies In Land and Food Systems from University of British Columbia creates opportunities for students to develop and strengthen research capabilities and advanced knowledge. 

This Animal physiology, immunology and developmental biology programme from Masaryk University aims to prepare top specialists in specific scientific fields developed within the Department of Animal Physiology and Immunology at the Institute of Experimental Biology, Faculty of Science, Masaryk University.

Applicants need to identify an area of research interest and a potential advisor at the time of application; they should feel free to contact members of the faculty to discuss possible research projects before submission of the application. A research project is a central part of the Biological Sciences PhD degree from The University of Maine.

In the Infectious Disease programme from University of Glasgow we take a highly interdisciplinary approach to the study of infectious disease that combines mathematical and statistical modelling with ecology, evolutionary biology, parasitology, immunology and bioinformatics and the social sciences.

Integrated Plant Sciences (IPS) at University of Georgia allows first-year graduate students to explore the research areas of nearly 60 faculty and 8 participating PhD graduate programs.

Research in the School of Biology at the University of St Andrews spans a broad range of topics in the biological sciences, and offers a variety of opportunities for PhD research.

Our Plant Biology students at Washington State University generally focus on research in the broad areas of plant physiology, ecology, evolution, systematics, and molecular biology.

The Computational and Integrative Biology degree at the Rutgers University offers rigorous research training. With faculty support, students from diverse academic backgrounds contribute to groundbreaking interdisciplinary research.

The University of Lodz Bio-Med-Chem Doctoral School is an interdisciplinary school, which has a unique curriculum offer.

The Biomedical Sciences - Human Evolutionary Biology Ph.D. program at Kent State University is designed for students who are interested in the study of human evolution, including genetics, anthropology, and archaeology. 

The PhD degree in Biology at Brigham Young University is structured to challenge students to develop intellectual independence.

An important characteristic of natural structures is their multi-layered, hierarchically structured, finely tuned and highly differentiated combination of a few basic molecular components leading to structures that are characterized by multiple networked functions. We offer a Biological Design and Integrative Structures degree at the University of Stuttgart. 

The research programme Infection and Immunity offered at the Utrecht University has proven itself over the last decades.

Purdue University Interdisciplinary Life Science Program (PULSe) is a highly selective PhD program for motivated students with interests in a life science discipline. 

From animal behaviour to molecular evolution, you work in field and laboratory settings, guided and supervised by our expert faculty. This Biology programme is offered at the University of Sussex.

Working closely with members of the Astrobiology and Habitats for Life research area at The Open University UK, we use a variety of experimental techniques, including molecular biology, mineralogy and geochemistry, and orbital flight experiments, to understand the way in which microorganisms persist in extreme environments and how this could be applied to environments elsewhere.
