BiSCoP CTP

BiSCoP CTP (Bioscience for Sustainable Consumer Products Collaborative Training Partnership) is creating an inclusive, collaborative environment for high quality doctoral training that will prepare over 30 PhD students with the knowledge and skills needed for successful careers at the forefront of global bioscience. This will help ensure the UK maintains a leadership position in bioscience with improved translation of frontier research into economic and societal impact.

We are creating an outstanding environment for PhD research between Durham, Northumbria and Newcastle Universities, biotech company Prozomix & P&G. The third cohort of PhD students starting in October 2024 will embark upon a 4-year research training programme with modules in hands-on lean innovation, an Accredited Certificate in Strategic Management and Leadership Practice (a Durham University mini-MBA), Intellectual Property, at least a 3-month placement (P&G UK or USA innovation centre and or Prozomix UK) and other events. Research projects are available in the following areas:
