AZ Funded PhD Studentship in Macrophage Biology

3 weeks ago


Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time

**Project Overview**

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our team at the University of Cambridge, working on a collaborative project jointly supervised by Prof Ravi Gupta and Dr. Daniele Corridoni at AstraZeneca. This unique opportunity will allow you to work across two sites, aiming to train independent, innovative scientists capable of pursuing translational research.

**Research Focus**

The project, entitled Macrophage-induced cytokines and cell cycle state in cancer and inflammatory diseases, is in the field of macrophages and their role in cancers and inflammatory diseases such as IBD. Our research has shown that macrophages have diverse phenotypes and functions depending partly on the microenvironment they reside in, and play important roles in a range of conditions such as inflammatory arthritis, wound healing, cancer, and infectious diseases.

**Objectives**

We aim to deploy a range of techniques to address the link between cell cycle regulation, tumourigenesis, and inflammation. Our data could potentially be leveraged to modulate innate immune responses in diseases through drugs that modulate the cell cycle.

**Supervision and Training**

You will be working closely with our team of experts, including Prof Ravi Gupta and Dr. Daniele Corridoni, and will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and resources. You will also have the opportunity to present your research at international conferences and publish your findings in top-tier journals.

**University Support**

The University actively supports equality, diversity, and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society. Full details of the University's entrance requirements and scholarships are specified on the following link: .
