1. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
Applications are invited for a three year fully funded, full-time international studentship, commencing 1st October 2024. The student will be based at the Faculty of History as part of a UKRI-funded project titled ‘Colombo: Layered Histories in the Global South City’, which was selected for funding by the European Research Council under its ‘HORIZON’ programme. The prospective doctoral student will focus their attention within the broad field of the Political and/or social history of Colombo, ideally in the era after 1800. Given the project’s aim to generate dialogue between Sri Lanka and Europe, candidates applying from Sri Lanka are especially encouraged.

About PhD Position
In the past 25 years, relativistic quantum information has become an increasingly active field of research. Practical applications include protocols for bit commitment and related cryptographic tasks, versions of quantum money that do not require long-term quantum memory, position verification schemes and related tasks, and algorithms for summoning and routing quantum states on distributed quantum networks where signalling bounds are relevant. New experiments have been proposed that use quantum information to test the quantum nature of gravity, along with various models characterising possible relationships between quantum information and spacetime and their implications for the power of physical information processing, communication and sensing.
3. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
The aim of this programme is to capitalise on the UK’s great strengths in well-established longitudinal population cohorts (e.g., UK Biobank, INTERVAL) that combine linkage to NHS health record systems, genetic and genomic information, and wide-angle multi-omics assays that capture thousands of molecular analytes in blood. These powerful large-scale resources can be harnessed to understand biological processes, evaluate causes of diseases singly and in combination (multimorbidity), identify potential drug targets, discover disease subtypes, and create disease prediction algorithms. The project will build on the HDR UK Multiomics Cohorts Consortium, a collection of 15 UK population cohorts involving >800,000 participants and involve cohorts in low- and middle-income countries to enhance diversity.

6. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
A full PhD scholarship is available, to work in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics for an excellent student who nominates Newnham College as their first-choice college to undertake research on Machine Learning applied to Theoretical High Energy Physics in the group of Prof. Maria Ubiali.
7. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
The student will work as part of the interdisciplinary research team, who are working to establish and oversee landscape¿scale research in three iconic UK landscapes¿the Cambridgeshire Fens, the Lake District and the Scottish Cairngorms¿in partnership with farmers, NGOs, businesses and local communities. CLR works with key stakeholders in each of these landscapes, to assess the benefits of protecting and restoring nature and transparently debate the trade-offs. CLR will also co-design incentives to encourage long-term conservation, food security, restoration and regeneration strategies.
8. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
Applications are invited for an Ernest Oppenheimer Studentship to be held at Cambridge University in Colloid Science, as broadly interpreted within the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, materials science and engineering. The Studentship is to support research projects directly leading to a PhD. The application should be made by the designated research supervisor, on behalf of the named candidate. Normally, only one application per supervisor will be considered.
9. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
Diffusion models have proven to be powerful tools for data modelling and analysis. They offer a versatile framework for capturing complex patterns and dynamics in various domains. In this funded PhD opportunity, we aim to push the boundaries of diffusion models by combining theoretical aspects with practical challenges, with a specific emphasis on continuous-time stochastic processes. Our goal is to enhance the applicability of these models in the medical domain, particularly in denoising and image reconstruction tasks where efficient and accurate models are highly desirable.
10. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
Applications are invited for 4-year PhD studentship based in the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience and the MRC Toxicology unit in the School of Biological Sciences at U. of Cambridge and the new AstraZeneca Discovery Centre at Cambridge. The student will be working on a collaborative project jointly supervised by Dr Mennella in in the MRC Toxicology Unit and Dr Emma Rawlins in Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience in the School of Biological Sciences at U. of Cambridge and Dr Jennifer Tan, Dr Benedicte Recolin, Dr Kelly Evans and Dr Catherine Betts at AstraZeneca and will have the opportunity to work across the two sites. The project, entitled “Unravelling and predicting toxicity of Antibody Drug Conjugates in the lung using genome-wide multi-omics and CRISPR-Cas9” aims at leveraging knowledge in airway biology and Omics technologies to understand why Antibody Drug Conjugates, a promising new drug modality with high efficacy against lethal cancers can cause adverse response limiting their use.
11. Fully Funded PhD Program
About PhD Position
This PhD studentship offers an opportunity to investigate the culture of female religious communities in the Middle Ages, through a study of their surviving manuscripts. We are inviting applicants to propose a project that explores any aspect of women’s conventual life, with the specific aim of bringing together kinds of sources that have rarely been discussed in combination. The themes and structure of the project are entirely open, provided the proposal is interdisciplinary and combines different types of manuscripts in novel, creative, and productive ways.

About PhD Position
Applicants are invited for two 4-year PhD studentships in the Department of Physiology, Development & Neuroscience (PDN) from October 2024. These students will join the Cambridge Biosciences Doctoral Training Programme, participate in training and cohort-building events, and undertake a Professional Internship for PhD Students (PIPS) of 3 months. We welcome and encourage applications from people from groups that are under-represented in postgraduate study, as well as students who may have faced an educational or socio-economic disadvantage.
