Summary

By bringing together transcriptomics and cutting edge imaging, and data
analysis techniques, this PhD project aims to examine how abnormalities
in placental function leads to altered programming of the developing
fetal brain in a neurodevelopmental disorder. This interdisciplinary
project will provide the student with preclinical lab-based skills, and
bioinformatic and data-handling skills that will be applicable to a wide
range of career pathways.

Can the project be completed part time?
