SAIC announces PhD programme worth over £500k

Opportunities to grow in the life sciences sector in Scotland continue to arise, at Aquaculture UK 2018, SAIC announced a new skills initiative and PhD projects worth over £500,000. For the first time, SAIC will fund four PhD positions, each tackling an area of priority research for the industry.

This forms the first suite of SAIC PhDs as part of a skills initiative closely allied with industry requirements. Three of the PhD projects will focus on fish health issues and one addresses the needs of mussel farmers, creating collaborative partnerships between academia and industry.
