Widening Participation Phd Studentship

3 months ago


Cambridge, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time

The Leverhulme Centre for Life in the Universe and the University of Cambridge are committed to Widening Participation in postgraduate students at the University of Cambridge.

Research within the Centre aims to develop a deeper understanding of life, its emergence, and its distribution in the Universe by addressing four questions:

- What are the chemical pathways which led to the origins of life that are compatible with benign conditions for life in different planetary environments
- How do we characterise the environments on Earth and other planets that could act as the cradle of prebiotic chemistry and life
- What observational facilities and methods will allow investigation of bodies beyond the Solar System, the remote sensing of their atmospheres and the search for signatures of geological and biological evolution
- How can philosophical and mathematical concepts refine our understanding of what we mean by life, leading to new interdisciplinary collaborations and modes of scientific enquiry

We have two fully funded PhD studentships available for home (UK) students starting October 2024. These studentships will cover fees and stipend for students for 3.5 years and research cost support will be provided.

Widening Participation supports students who are underrepresented in Higher Education, including students:

- from particular Ethnic groups including, Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic (BAME)
- who are in the first generation of their family to go to university
- who have been in care or who have been a young carer
- who are from a low-income background

Application process:
The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
