Deadline for applications: 7 January 2011The Department of Biochemistry in collaboration with departments in the Medical Sciences and Mathematical, Life and Physical Sciences offer PhD studentships for research in wide ranging areas of biochemistry, molecular biology, biomedicine, biophysics and computational biochemistry. In your application for admission to a programme of study, you must indicate which studentship(s) you wish to be considered for. Alternatively, candidates may bring their own scholarships or sponsorships to support their studies, and will need to provide relevant information on their aplication for admission.
