Applications for PhD and Postdoc positions
Are you interested in working on exiting challenges around anticmicrobial resistance looking at ways to combine machine learning and molecular simulations?
Please get in touch by email to discuss different opportunities to join the group, or take a look at some of these PhD and Postdoc funding opportunities:
If you are interested in working with us as a PhD student or postdoc, please send me an email. If there is no specific opening advertise take a look at some of the following opportunities for PhD students:
- University of Edinburgh Scholarship and Student Funding Services
- Commonwealth Scholarships
- Fullbright Scholarships
- Marshall Scholarships
- Chevening scholarships
- Scottish Overseas Research Students Awards Scheme
And for Postdocs:
Generally if you are looking for postdoc funding, there is a great resource for fellowships/fundinding opportunities around the world: postdoc funding schemes
Undergraduate student projects
The group is happy to accommodate students from various disciplines, not just Chemistry. Ideally suited candidates are students in Chemistry, Physics, Computer Science, Biochemistry or Biotechnology, provided you have keen interest in exploring the interplay between Biology, Chemistry, and computational modelling and machine learning.
Summer student projects
Please send me an email if you are interested in doing a summer research project to discuss possible available options.
Deadlines for summer projects are usually quite early in the year (end of January). Here is a none exhaustive list of funding sources:
There are no current open positions!
