• The role of the actin remodelling protein, Flightless (Flii) in the development and progression of skin cancers
  Scholarship Available Dr Zlatko Kopecki Never closes
  About this project 
  A PhD scholarship is available within the Regenerative Medicine Laboratory, Future Industries Institute and Clinical Health Sciences at the University of South Australia commencing February 2021.
  
  You will be based at UniSA’s Mawson Lakes Campus however, the project will involve experiments at UniSA’s South Australian Cancer Research Institute, with close collaboration with clinical collaborators within the Dermatology Department of the Royal Adelaide Hospital.  
  
  The PhD project will investigate the role of the actin remodelling protein, Flightless (Flii) in the development and progression of skin cancers. Flii has previously been identified as a potential therapeutic target for squamous cell carcinoma (Kopecki et al., Oncotarget 2015) but it remains to be determined its precise mechanism of action in the development and metastasis of these cancerous lesions.  
  
  You will use precancerous and cancerous cell lines and an array of invitro approaches to investigate the function of Flii in melanoma cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, invasion, and spheroid formation. You will also investigate the function of Flii in human precancerous skin lesions as well as developed melanomas and blood samples of patients attending the Dermatology Department of Royal Adelaide Hospital. Subsequently, the project will use animal models of skin cancers and metastasis to determine the effect of altering Flii gene expression on the development of melanomas. As part of this project you will investigate avenues to manipulate the expression and function of Flii to determine if this can reduce or prevent development, severity and progression of melanomas.  
  
  This project is supported by the Lions Medical Research Foundation and is aligned with their efforts to reduce the skin cancer burden in the community by early detection of skin cancers. 
  
  Skills and experience in any of the following areas will be advantageous but not essential. General molecular and cellular cancer biology, mammalian tissue culture, microscopy, immunohistochemistry, animal models. The successful candidate will be provided training in all relevant areas and techniques.
  
  Financial Support

• School Exclusionary Policies and Practices and their Impact
  Scholarship Available A/Prof. Anna Sullivan Never closes
  About this project
  
  This PhD scholarship is part of an Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery Project titled “School exclusionary policies and practices and their impact” (DP210100116). The successful candidate will join a highly experienced team, undertaking their doctoral research as part of the broader study, which aims to examine how and why Australian schools use exclusionary practices such as suspensions and exclusions to manage student behaviour.
  
  Research shows that exclusionary practices are widely used in Australian schools, however, they are often used as a quick fix for removing problematic students, and can negatively impact on students’ health, wellbeing and academic achievement. Evidence also suggests that these practices are disproportionately applied towards ‘at risk groups’ including students from different racial or cultural backgrounds and students with disabilities.
  
  The larger project will use a multi-phased approach to generate new knowledge in understanding the extent and impact of school exclusionary practices. This will entail: 1) a critical analysis of state and territory legislation and policy; 2) secondary analysis of quantitative data on the use of exclusionary practices; 3) illustrative case studies with young people and their families; and 4) the development of a set of policy alternatives to change the ways in which student behaviour is currently managed.
  
  The successful candidate will contribute towards Phase 3 of the research, undertaking illustrative case studies which investigate the short term impact of exclusions on students and their families. In doing so they will be supported by a highly experienced research team with a wide range of interdisciplinary expertise including critical policy analysis, behaviour management and student wellbeing.
  
  Eligibility and Financial Support
  
  This project is open to Australian and New Zealand citizens and permanent residents of Australia, including permenant humanitarian visa holders. A living allowance scholarship of $28,092pa. is available to this group. A fee-offset or waiver for the standard term of the program is also included. Applicants must be able to commence the PhD in 2021 and study fulltime in Australia from 2021 to 2024.
  
  Applicants must meet the eligibility criteria for entrance into a PhD or Masters by Research. Additionally, applicants must address the following selection criteria in the application form:
  

  • Work experience in educational settings
  • Teamwork experience in a collaborative and an investigative environment

  All applications that meet the eligibility and selection criteria will be considered for this project. A merit selection process will be used to determine the successful candidate.
  
  Application information
  
  The qualification obtained is a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).
  
  Applicants are expected to start in a timely fashion upon receipt of an offer. Extended deferral periods are not available.

  Scholarship Available Dr Wolfgang Mayer Never closes
  About this Project
  The University of South Australia is welcoming applications for a PhD position in Artificial Intelligence/Computer Science to work on the project "Application of Narrative Visualisation and Big Data to Improve High Value Manufacturing" funded by BAE Systems and the Innovative Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre.
  
  Discrete manufacturing in Defence inherently relies on participants in the supply chain performing at a very high-quality level without full visibility of what is happening elsewhere in the chain. Human-in-the-loop decision making is fundamental in high value complex manufacture, both to correct defects and increase operational efficiency.
  
  The problem is a latency of presenting appropriate data to the critical decision makers. Data captured from disparate Industry 4.0 technologies can be transformed into a trusted data driven decision support tool, based on big data and smart visualisation techniques.
  
  Eligibility & Financial Support
  A Scholarship is available to both domestic and international applicants. Applicants must meet the selection criteria for the award of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of South Australia.
  
  All applications that meet the eligibility and selection criteria will be considered for this project. A merit selection process will be used to determine the successful candidate.
  
  Candidates born in ITAR-proscribed countries and nationals of IT AR-proscribed countries are ineligible. Please check the list of denial countries in ITAR legislation prior to applying.

• Lie symmetry analysis in regularised nonlinear diffusion problems
  Scholarship Available Dr Bronwyn Hajek Never closes
  About this Project
  We are seeking a motivated student to undertake an ARC funded PhD position in Applied Mathematics to work on a project titled “A Novel Geometric Approach to Shocks in Reaction-Nonlinear Diffusion Models”.
  
  Reaction-nonlinear diffusion models play a vital role in the study of cell migration and population dynamics. However, the presence of aggregation, or backward diffusion, leads to the formation of shock waves - distinct, sharp interfaces between different populations of densities of cells - and the breakdown of the model.
  
  The aim of this project is to develop new geometric methods to explain the formation and temporal evolution of shock waves in regularised reaction-nonlinear diffusion models and devise innovative tools in singular perturbation theory and stability analysis that will identify key parameters in the creation of shock waves, as well as their dynamic behaviour.
  
  To be successful in this project you should have a completed Honours Degree and have a strong background in mathematics. Knowledge in one or more of the following areas would be highly regarded: differential equations, PDEs, symmetry analysis, dynamical systems, group theory.
  
  Eligibility & Financial Support
  A Scholarship is available to both domestic and international applicants. Applicants must meet the selection criteria for the award of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of South Australia. All applications that meet the eligibility and selection criteria will be considered for this project. A merit selection process will be used to determine the successful candidate.
