Fully funded EPSRC UDLA PhD studentships at Imperial in biomedical engineering and medicine, covering synthetic biology and cardiac imaging with interdisciplinary training and strong research support.

Project Description

The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) University Doctoral Landscape Award (UDLA) supports up to 8 PhD studentships within the Faculty of Medicine at Imperial College London. Students will join one of two flagship research cohorts: 1. Synthetic Cells (SynCells) for Healthcare Led by Ravinash Krishna Kumar Projects include: Targeted antimicrobial delivery against resistant biofilms Synthetic cell technologies for prostate cancer RNA biomarkers for therapeutic activation Programmable immune training and vaccine delivery 2. Deep Mapping of the Myocardium Led by Andrew Scott Projects include: Computational simulation of microvascular systems Cardiac ageing and disease markers 3D reconstruction of heart structure and gene expression Advanced imaging for ventricular activation mapping Students will benefit from interdisciplinary research across bioengineering, medicine, and computational science, as well as training through Imperial’s Early Career Researcher Institute (ECRI), which provides professional and transferable skills development.
