Edinburgh EastBio PhD: Dynamic Regulation of Tissue Disassembly and Cell Death in Drosophila

Four-year competitive funding: either the EastBio BBSRC Doctoral Landscape Award or Edinburgh Doctoral College Award (EDC; no separate EDC application); open worldwide. Both routes list tuition, a UKRI-rate stipend and project support. Under the saved EastBio policy, international EastBio awards are capped at 30% of the EastBio intake. This is an intake quota, not an individual's probability of success; the saved materials do not specify whether this intake spans host institutions or refers to a particular year, and do not establish an EDC cap. Successful international EastBio awardees receive the overseas-fee top-up waiver; EastBio excludes visa/IHS. EDC coverage of international fee gaps and immigration costs is unspecified. Includes a three-month placement. Confirm route, 2027/28 stipend and budget.
