Location of University of Leeds
The White Rose Universities of Leeds, Sheffield and York have been awarded £6m to fund a 5-year Doctoral Training Centre in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine.
The DTC brings together a cohort of postgraduate research students and their supervisors to develop effective clinical therapies for the treatment of human diseases and disabilities.
This is an opportunity to study for a prestigious and exciting four year fully funded PhD within a multidisciplinary engineering and biological environment.
Contents
The four year doctoral training programme will begin with a year in Leeds where you will receive clinical training and study specialist modules.
After this year, you can then choose to stay in Leeds or move to Sheffield or York.
In Leeds, you will work with world leading experts from the Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering, in Sheffield within the Centre for Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering and in York within the Department of Biology.
Benefits
* Research within an interactive interdisciplinary and innovative research training environment, applying advanced multidisciplinary basic sciences to market-led engineering research challenges in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine;
* Supervised and guided by at least two world-class academics in engineering and biology from one of the high ranking, research intensive, White Rose universities of Leeds, Sheffield or York;
* Access to excellent facilities, including state of the art tissue engineering laboratories and clean rooms for the development of materials for clinical use;
* Clinical and industrial training within an interdisciplinary and innovative environment;
* Ideal training for a career in research and development in the tissue engineering field as well as providing invaluable experience in industry and clinical applications.
