Funding Opportunities
Please be aware that this is not a funded PhD If you are interested in applying for this course of study; it is vital that you work with the Supervisor who will support your application to secure funding.
The IMS-MRL have no regularly available funds to support three-year PhD students, although studentships funded by UK Research Councils, medical charities or other sources may be available within individual research groups. Applications can also be considered from students with a good prospect of securing their own funding, for example, through awards from the University Trusts and other scholarships.
Before applying for this course, prospective students should contact individual IMS-MRL principal investigators whose work interests them to discuss potential projects and ask if they would be willing to potentially supervise them.
Applicants must then name their proposed Supervisor and provide a short description of the research area in their application form. Applications without a named proposed Supervisor, who has already been contacted, will be rejected.
