Biology and Biomaterials
In this Biology and Biomaterials PhD at the University of Brighton you will join our researchers as they examine and innovate in the structure, design and functional performance of natural and synthetically derived pure and composite biomaterials with diagnostic or therapeutic impact on living systems.

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.

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.

Great Western Four and Doctoral Training Partnership
The Great Western Four and Doctoral Training Partnership comprises the University of Bristol, University of Bath, Cardiff University, University of Exeter, British Antarctic Survey, British Geological Survey, Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, the Natural History Museum and Plymouth Marine Laboratory.

Inflammation and Ageing
Contribute to research focusing on finding solutions to a range of chronic inflammation-driven illnesses through a highly collaborative approach with the Inflammation and Ageing course at University of Birmingham.

Veterinary Medicine and Science
As a student in the Veterinary Medicine and Science programme at the University of Surrey you’ll work alongside academic staff with different areas of interest and expertise. These include applied clinical research, fundamental science, inherited and infectious diseases and pathology.

Biological Science
The Biological Science course from Lancaster University offers a phd degree in Biological Science. A great strength of LEC is its ability to share expertise and ideas from many disciplines in order to provide a flexible approach, which is so important in the dynamic, rapidly developing discipline of environmental science.

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.
Biological Science (MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology)
The Biological Science (MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology) programme from the University of Cambridge is one of the world's leading research institutes. Discoveries and inventions developed at the LMB, such as DNA sequencing or methods to determine the structure of proteins, have revolutionised all areas of biology.
Plant Biology
Research in our School of Life Sciences covers a wide spectrum of biology from genes to ecosystems, and this broad-based structure provides opportunities for developing novel ideas and inter-disciplinary projects. The Plant Biology programme is offered at University of Essex.
Biological Sciences
The Biological Sciences MPhil/PhD programme from The University of Exeter is committed to ensuring that our research students are given the training and support to develop high-level professional skills required for careers in academia, commercial or public sectors.
Cell Engineering
In the Cell Engineering program from University of Glasgow, we are focused on fostering education and training in research to develop microenvironments to investigate and instruct cellular behaviour including, but not solely, stem cell differentiation.
Biology
Research opportunities in the Biology programme at Keele University include a wide range of topics in mammalian molecular biology, molecular medicine, epigenetics, proteomics, physiology, structural biology and neuroscience.
Mathematical Biology
The Mathematical Biology Group is a cross-disciplinary group between the School of Life, Health and Chemical Sciences and the School of Mathematics and Statistics at The Open University UK.
Biological Science (Sanger Institute)
