Postgraduate Studentship
*UCL INSTITUTE OF OPHTHALMOLOGY / INSTITUTE OF NEUROLOGY*
Pressure damage to the optic nerve head in glaucoma is the most common cause
of irreversible blindness and is currently incurable. Recent experimental
work has demonstrated that an adult stem cell, the olfactory ensheathing
cell, can structurally and functionally repair spinal cord tract and root
injuries, and that these cells also stimulate the regeneration of optic
nerve fibres. This PhD project will investigate transferring the application
of these cells to optic nerve damage. The student will be supervised by
Professor P T Khaw (UCL Institute of Ophthalmology) and Professor G Raisman
(UCL Institute of Neurology).
Applicants should have a first class honours degree or equivalent in a
related subject. The studentship can only be awarded to students from India,
China, and the developing world countries, as defined by the OECD (see
www.rcuk.ac.uk/hodgkin/eligibility.htm for details of eligible countries).
This studentship is available immediately and offers a stipend of £14,600
plus fees at the overseas student rate. This Dorothy Hodgkin Postgraduate
Award is partly funded by the Medical Research Council and the charity Fight
for Sight.
