Via www.jobs.ac.uk. Ten fully funded PhD places are available in Biomedical Imaging at the University of Birmingham to start in October 2012. The projects incorporate the disciplines of chemical, physical and computer sciences and biomedicine under the title 'Fluorescent imaging of sex hormone receptors using oestrogens, testosterones and other steroids labelled with fluorescent metal-based probes'.

An example of a project would be to use new classes of steroids, labelled with fluorescent metal centres and other fluorescent labels, to create probes that can be used to image the localisation of oestrogen, androgen and progesterone receptors in cells and in vivo in order to better understand the activity and levels of these receptors, especially in disease.

Further details can be found by clicking on the link below; the deadline for applications is 1 February 2012.
