Study for a PhD in Inflammation Research at the University of Edinburgh, School of Regeneration and Repair. This postgraduate doctoral programme is hosted at the Centre for Inflammation Research (CIR).

CIR is part of the Institute for Regeneration and Repair (IRR), where our scientists and clinicians study tissue regeneration and repair to advance human health and reproductive outcomes.

The Institute for Regeneration and Repair incorporates three leading research centres:

• Centre for Regenerative Medicine

How will I learn?

Training is offered through seminars, presentation events, and journal clubs, alongside hands-on laboratory and research skills development provided by your supervisors, faculty, and lab support staff.

PhD students may be involved in collaborative projects that provide cross-disciplinary experience and/or promote translation into the biotechnology or clinical fields.

Generic and transferable skills training for postgraduate students is provided through the University's Institute for Academic Development (IAD).
