Three PhD studentships have become available at the new Centre for Enzyme Innovation (CEI) at the University of Portsmouth.
The three project titles available are:
Designing and evolving plastic-degrading enzymes for new function.
Exploring the genome architecture of plastic-degrading bacteria.
Structural and biophysical characterisation of novel plastic degrading enzymes.
The projects are fully-funded for four years, and focus on searching for solutions to the most-urgent environmental problems facing the planet, including plastic pollution. The studentships are available to UK and EU students only.
Applications close on 7 February 2020, and the studentships will start in October 2020.
