Hi everyone, apologies for the indiscriminate use of the list:
Just to say that I have a fully funded three year full time phd studentship for appropriately qualified students but that they must come from the EU. Sorry about not clarifying that.
It is in ethico legal aspects of doping.
The deadeline is a short one. Please encourage your best students to consider it
Best wishes
mike

Subject: Funded PhD position in the Ethico-legal Aspects of Anti-Doping - Swansea
Institute for Health Research
2009 Fully-funded PhD Studentships
At the Institute for Health Research, our research into the health and social sciences builds on our belief that high quality, high impact research must be based on strong collaborations with the community, the service sector and with centers within the University and beyond. In doing so we are able to drive forward the inter-disciplinary research necessary to provide real benefits to patients and other healthcare service users throughout the local, regional, national and international communities.
We are pleased to be able to offer four fully-funded PhD studentships this year in the following areas:
· Health Economics
· Isolation, Purification and Characterisation of Anti-microbial Factors from Rag Worms
· Exploring Journeys for Older People with Cancer in South West Wales
· Ethico-legal Aspects of Anti-doping
Brief information on each of these topics is outlined below.
Please also note that all studentships have the following eligibility requirements:
Only available to UK/EU applicants.
Applicants must have a minimum of a 2.1 degree. A Masters qualification in a relevant discipline would be an advantage. (Applicants holding qualifications from non-UK institutions will be expected to hold a qualification equivalent to a 2.1 UK honours degree or a UK Masters).
Applications are open to new PhD students from all Universities who wish to study Full-Time.
If you are interested in applying for any of these studentships then please submit a covering letter identifying which studentship you are interested in, and include a CV detailing research experience to-date, scientific interests and at least two references. This should be accompanied by any additional application documentation outlined in the synopses below. Successful applicants will then be asked to complete a University postgraduate application form at a later stage. The closing date for applications is 4th September 2009.
All applications should be sent to Mrs Karin Terry, Institute for Health Research, School of Health Science, Swansea University, Singleton Park, Swansea, SA2 8PP or by email to [log in to unmask]
Once we have processed all applications and have an indication of preference we will contact you with a possible date for interview. Should you progress to this stage interviews are scheduled for September and the studentships will commence early October 2009.
Should you have any queries about the studentships available then please contact the listed PhD supervisor or Dr Ian Pepper ([log in to unmask])
1. Ethico-legal Aspects of Anti-doping
An excellent opportunity has arisen for an outstanding graduate to work towards a PhD through an investigation in the ethico-legal aspects of anti-doping policy and practice. This may cover one or more of the following:
· Athlete's rights in relation to anti-doping policy and practice (possibly in the context of the development of a new UK National Anti Doping Organisation)
· Ethico-legal critique of WADA's new code http://www.wada-ama.org/en/dynamic.ch2?pageCategory.id=250
· Ethico-legal aspects of genetic enhancement
· Ethico-legal aspects of sports physicians in relation to doping
· Ethico-legal aspects of intelligence-led doping testing
· Harm-minisation versus punative approaches to anti-doping
· Privacy and the Whereabouts policy
The topic of the actual studentship will be negotiated with the successful applicant. In the first instance applicants should provide a two page outline of their proposed research idea.
