Self-funded PhD: bacteriophage-derived antimicrobial proteins (endolysins, depolymerases) — Queen’s University Belfast

Self-funded PhD project at the Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy (Dr Timofey Skvortsov, Dr Sheiliza Carmali) to mine phage and prophage genomes for endolysins, depolymerases and receptor-binding proteins, engineer modular variants and test them against Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogens and biofilms, including hydrogel and microneedle delivery. Applications are accepted all year round; the page states the project is not funded and welcomes self-funding candidates.
