PhD Positions

The University’s research into new ways of tackling drug-resistant infections will be bolstered by a pioneering programme to develop the next generation of scientists specialising in this area. The Medical Research Foundation, charitable arm of the Medical Research Council, has launched its first ever national antimicrobial resistance doctoral training programme.  

Leeds is among the participating universities and will recruit fully-funded PhD students to specialise in research in the field. They will contribute to the drive to find new antibiotics or ways to improve diagnoses of infections. Among the other partners in the £2.85million programme are the University of Bristol, Imperial College London, the Nuffield Department of Medicine at Oxford.
