PhD Studentships
Most studentships in the GDSC are funded by the MRC, BBSRC, EU and Cancer Research UK studentships. These cover registration, running expenses, travel to an international meeting and a stipend. Eligibility for these studentships depends on the criteria set by the funding bodies.
Current studenships are available with the following groups:
Professor Antony Carr & Dr David Klenerman - A joint (ERC funded) PhD studentship to study DNA replication at super-resolution by PALM microscopy. Read more....
Dr Matthew Neale - Biochemical reconstitution of recombination reactions on chromatin. Read more....

The purpose-built laboratories, funded by the Joint Infrastructure Fund (JIF), the Wolfson Foundation and Sussex University, are located adjacent to the School of Life Sciences, and provide a dynamic and collaborative environment for carrying out state-of -the-art research. Much of this research is supported by the Medical Research Council via a Centre Grant and Programme Grants. The Centre currently houses twenty research groups.
