Strathclyde-GSK MPhil & PhD Programmes @Strath_GSK_PhD

🚨 New research published from the University of Strathclyde/GSK Collaborative PhD Programme 🚨 Great to see this new science published, which focuses on understanding the benefits and drawbacks of 3D combinatorial and deep learning generators. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac….

We welcomed our newest students joining the programme with an induction day at Strathclyde. We hope they all enjoy the summer break before starting studies in October. @StrathScience @GSK

Our 13th collaborative PhD symposium was a success. Great science lectures from all speakers and excellent posters on display. Congratulations to Ridhima Raina and Harry Copping for picking up up the poster and presentation prizes, respectively.@StrathScience @SIPBS_Strath @GSK

Congratulations to all graduating students from our collaborative programmes. Enjoy this week's ceremonies!

New Paper ✴️✴️ Our collaborations with @AstraZeneca have been highlighted as part of an @ACSMedChemLett special issue “Academic and Industrial Collaborations in Drug Discovery”. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Well done to James Lodge from @GSK Large Molecule Discovery who picked up a Poster Award at the GSK Biology Day. James works with Dr Zahra Rattray @SIPBS_Strath and his poster was entitled: Engineering Valency to Investigate the Impact of Avidity on Antibody Effector Function.

New paper ✴️ Congrats to PhD students Caity Fawcett and Alfie Doherty who have recently published in Bioconjugate Chemistry. The paper has also been selected as an Editor’s Choice article. @GSK @StrathChem @ACSPublications Check it out here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congratulations to Alfie Doherty who picked up the @ACSPublications Poster Prize at the ACSMEDI-EFMC Medicinal Chemistry Frontiers 2025 conference in Chicago! The international event was organised by @AcsMedi and @EuroMedChem.

Congratulations to our collaborative student Eilidh McKay who won first prize for her oral presentation at the 35th SCI Fine Chemicals Group Postgraduate Symposium. Eilidh is working on ADC research with GSK and the Burley Group. @BurleyResearch @GSK @StrathScience

Congratulations to our collaborative PhD Student Rebecca Stevens who has been awarded The European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology (EFMC) - Young Scientists Network PhD Prize, sponsored by @SelvitaKrakow. @BurleyResearch @GSK efmc.info/ysn-phd-prize#….

Yesterday we held our annual @GSK Large Molecule Discovery/@StrathScience PhD Symposium. It was a very successful event with lots of great science discussed. Congratulations to Temea Turjaka and Max Phippen for being awarded best talk and poster presentation, respectively.

New paper published in Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis on electrochemical amidation. Congratulations to all authors. @J_thompson12 @StrathChem @GSK advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

Many congratulations to Dr Claire Osborn (@GSK, Large Molecule Discovery) for successfully passing her PhD viva. Claire performed some excellent science engineering therapeutic antibodies for optimised expression and chemical stability. @PaulHoskisson @StrathScience

New review article on quantifying antibody binding. Congratulations to all authors! @GSK @StrathChem @BurleyResearch @z_rattray tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

New publication from our GSK/Strathclyde Biopharm partnership. Congratulations to Georgie, Zahra, Glenn & William. @z_rattray @BurleyResearch @GSK pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

New publication from our collaborative programme on the high-throughput synthesis of PROTACS. Congratulations to Rebecca, Harry, Afjal and Glenn! @BurleyResearch @GSK pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We have PhD studentships available for starting 2025. Please see williamjkerr.com for full details. Projects are focused on iridium catalysis.

We are pleased to open our recruitment for our collaborative @GSK/@StrathChem PhD Studentships starting Oct 2025 in the areas of Synthetic and Medicinal Chemistry. Students will be based at GSK, Stevenage. Full details below and at: strath.ac.uk/science/chemis… Deadline: 06/01/2025.

A PhD position is available to join my group at Heriot-Watt University! This exciting project aims to develop innovative strategies to modify and enhance polymer properties through catalytic processes, opening up new frontiers in materials science. findaphd.com/phds/project/c…
