Looking for a PhD studentship? We have a fully funded @DiMeN_DTP position available in our team @MM_Sheffield studying phage biology and structure. We will use bacterial genetics and cryoEM (with Prof Per Bullough) to understand how phage kill C. difficile. Although some background in molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology or structural biology would be useful, you'll receive full training from our groups.
