Ten (10) PhD Scholarships, Department of Bioengineering, Imperial College London, UK (2016)

The Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies (CBIS) at Imperial College London welcomes applications for October 2016 starts from high-calibre prospective PhD students.

The Centre is housed within the leading Department of Bioengineering, attracting outstanding students and researchers from around the world. The Centre is comprised of multidisciplinary collaborations between military medical officers and civilian engineers and scientists that address difficult research issues with a clinically-led approach.

Studying the effects of blast injury develops and advances treatment, rehabilitation and recovery from injury while improving mitigation and promoting understanding of complex trauma. Students will benefit from a highly stimulating environment where they undertake a range of additional training and development opportunities as part of the Centre’s PhD cohort.
