Fully funded 4-year PhD (Norwich Research Park Biosciences DTP, reference SCHLIMPERT_J27DTP) supervised by Prof Susan Schlimpert at the John Innes Centre. It challenges the idea that bacterial NLR proteins only defend against phage, testing whether Streptomyces NLRs also shape development and antibiotic production, using computational mining plus experiments including phage assays. Open to home and international applicants; applications close 30 November 2026, start 1 October 2027.
