PhD students usually join the lab via the fantastic Doctoral Training schemes:

We do offer projects for 4th Year Natural Scientists but unfortunately no longer run projects for the MBiol course.

Summer studentships are available depending on space restrictions in the lab, please contact Tim with a CV containing contact details for two referees if you are interested.
