BBSRC-GSK Case PhD Studentship
If you have any funding opportunities for Regener8 members, please contact us.
A fully funded 4 year BBSRC-GlaxoSmithKline CASE PhD studentship is available in the area of Biomaterials research at the University of Sheffield.
This studentship offers a valuable opportunity to work with scientists and clinicians in both Sheffield and our industrial partner GSK, a world-leading health-care company. There will, therefore, be an opportunity to carry out some of the work at the GSK laboratories. The Biomaterials research Cluster is a dynamic group of experienced basic scientists and clinicians with a wide range of interests ranging from tissue engineering to applied biomaterials science.
