Developing an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based self-training platform for laparoscopic surgery
This Developing an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based self-training platform for laparoscopic surgery project at University of Dundee will be involved in developing a fully autonomous laparoscopy self-training system that provides insightful, intuitive, and timely feedback for improvement.

Advanced Biomaterial for Preventing Catheter-Associated Infections
Our new idea in Advanced Biomaterial for Preventing Catheter-Associated Infections at University of Dundee is to combine the anti-bacterial property of silver and anti-adhesive property of PTFE in a single coating by incorporating PTFE nano-particles into a silver matrix using a cost-effective electroless deposition technique.

Development of a Low-Cost Autonomous Device for Colorectal Cancer Screening and Treatment
For this Development of a Low-Cost Autonomous Device for Colorectal Cancer Screening and Treatment project at University of Dundee, we are seeking a proactive and passionate individual with a keen interest in scientific research in the field of medical devices.

Targeting the extracellular matrix remodelling for the treatment of obesity-associated cardio-renal dysfunction
This Targeting the extracellular matrix remodelling for the treatment of obesity-associated cardio-renal dysfunction project is offered at University of Dundee.

Advanced sensing platforms
The PhD Advanced sensing platforms project at University of Dundee will cover the full technological cycle from materials fabrication, characterisation and laser-assisted modification to translation of the material systems into sensing platforms.

Simulation-based training for improving surgical performance and patient safety in minimally invasive surgery (MIS)
In this Simulation-based training for improving surgical performance and patient safety in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) project at University of Dundee, we aim to explore the development and validation of simulation-based training in laparoscopic and robotic surgery for improving quality of surgical performance and patient safety.
Infection, Immunity and Inflammation
Infection, Immunity and Inflammation research at University of Glasgow includes cytokine and chemokine biology, immune cell signalling, advanced imaging technologies, and cellular & gut immunology.
Integrative Biomedical Sciences (Based in China)
The Integrative Biomedical Sciences (Based in China) programme at The University of Edinburgh will equip you with the distinct skills required to bridge the knowledge gap between the design, execution and interpretation of fundamental research and the challenges of translating this knowledge in humans.
Biomedical Sciences
In the Biomedical Sciences programme from University of Aberdeen, we offer cutting edge translational research addressing global health challenges, aimed at understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of how the human body functions, how these change during disease and infection and how this may be used to predict, identify and treat disease.
Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences
The Strathclyde Doctoral School provides a vibrant and comprehensive student-centred research and training environment in order to grow and support current and future research talent. This Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences PhD in is offered at the University of Strathclyde.
General Practice and Primary Care
We offer a General Practice and Primary Care degree at the University of Glasgow. Our staff, both clinical and research-based, are dedicated to undertaking internationally acclaimed research and teaching that addresses problems posed by complex care needs and inequalities and marginalised populations such as migrants and those living in areas of severe deprivation.
Precision Medicine
Our Doctoral Training Programme in Precision Medicine from University of Glasgow focuses on training PhD students in key MRC skills priorities in quantitative skills (mathematics, statistics, computation, and developing digital excellence) as applied to variety of data sources (from ‘omics’ to health records), and interdisciplinary skills including imaging and stratified medicine.
Medical Education
The field of Medical Education at University of Glasgow is concerned with how we educate medical practitioners across the continuum of their undergraduate curriculum and their postgraduate medical training.
Diabetes, Renal, Endocrine and Metabolic Medicine
Our aim in the Diabetes, Renal, Endocrine and Metabolic Medicine program from University of Glasgow is to better understand the mechanisms of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases affecting people with the conditions covered by our clinical specialities, and the implications for the wider population - including groups defined by ethnicity, gender and deprivation.
