**DPhil**
This is a research degree leading to the award of a DPhil in Chemical Biology. Many training opportunities are available throughout the course, including seminar series throughout the department and a world-class annual visiting speaker programme, but the focus of the course is the research project.
The variety of research areas available within this course depend on supervisors’ current interests, as detailed on the Department of Chemistry website. This degree focuses on the molecular basis of biology, including the synthesis and adaptation of biomolecules, single molecule biophysics, the translational use of chemical processes inside living organisms leading to new therapeutics and the harnessing of enzymes.
The nature of each student’s working week depends on their project, but students would typically carry out their research in one of the department’s buildings, engaged in full-time experimental or theoretical/computational work (or a mixture of the two).
During the first year, in addition to starting work on their research, students are encouraged to follow training courses chosen from the vast number offered by the department and the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division Graduate School, and it is recommended that they attend at least three of these. A quarterly report on each student’s progress is submitted by their supervisor throughout the course.
