PhD Studentship – Computational Modelling and Optimisation of Antibody-Drug Conjugates for Tumours (RS940)


Swansea University
Location: Swansea, United Kingdom

General Description:
Swansea University is offering a fully funded EPSRC PhD studentship in the Department of Applied Mathematics. The project focuses on computational modelling and optimisation of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for cancer treatment. The research will involve developing mathematical models to simulate tumour growth, drug delivery, and the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ADCs. The student will work closely with interdisciplinary teams including mathematicians, biomedical engineers, and clinicians, contributing to innovative approaches in personalised medicine and oncology.

Eligibility Criteria:

  • Applicants should hold a first-class or strong upper second-class honours degree in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
