We particularly welcome proposals on one of the following topics:
•
Translational research: the changing relationship between public and private
•
The emerging new sciences of systems biology and synthetic biology
•
Life science innovation and health equity
•
Internationalisation of the pharmaceutical and life science industries
•
Mapping global public private partnerships for neglected diseases
•
Biosciences and institutional transformation of global agricultural and health organisations
•
Assessing democratic governance of new life science technologies
•
Multi-level governance and its limitations
•
Risk and life science innovation beyond the precautionary principle
•
Intellectual property and life science innovation
•
Exploration of new interdisciplinary methodologies for exploring the diffusion and impact of
genomics innovation
•
Innovation and regulation interactions in the development of clinical stem cell therapies
However, the studentship can be in any area of Innogen’s work and we encourage other
innovative proposals for PhD research. Further information about Innogen staff and their
research interests can be found at www.innogen.ac.uk
The studentship is funded on the ESRC 1+3 or +3 model and is open to UK and EU students:
UK student awards cover fees and maintenance; EU students normally receive fees only.
Part-time students receive the fee element plus pro rata maintenance. 1+3 awards combine 1
year of MSc research training with 3 years’ PhD funding. +3 awards are for applicants who
have already completed a year of ESRC-recognised research training.
The deadline for applications is 21 March 2008. Innogen also welcomes applications via
the ESRC’s open competition (www.esrc.ac.uk) for which the deadline is 1 May 2008.
