More information about our PhD programme and how to apply can be found here.

Every year we admit up to 18 students from all over the world in our PhD programme, providing them with 4 years of hands on research experience, comprehensive training and a full range of opportunities to develop their potential and become the future leaders in their field of choice. Full funding is provided, including a generous living stipend, regardless of nationality.

The Dunn School is one of the UK’s leading biomedical departments, with a spectacular history and a fantastic ongoing research output, focusing on the molecular mechanisms underlying disease.

We take very seriously our responsibility to recruit, mentor and train the best graduate students from across the world as they start their research journey. The success of our supervision and training is evidenced in the thriving careers that our students lead after their time with us, including in academia (e.g. Nobel Prize winners, head of major national and international scientific organisations), and also in consultancy, entrepreneurship, investment, medicine, law and public service.

We are located in central Oxford, adjacent to the beautiful University Parks and in the thriving South Parks Science Area.
