Explore a dynamic and growing field that may unlock innovative methods in solar energy, pharmaceuticals, medical diagnostics, and even enhance our grasp of brain function and quantum theory principles. Conduct cutting-edge research utilizing our state-of-the-art spectroscopy, ion beam proton irradiation, nanotechnology, and mass spectrometry equipment at the Advanced Technology Institute, along with resources from our partner institution, the National Physical Laboratory. Become part of the pioneering Leverhulme Doctoral Training Centre for Quantum Biology—the world's first such center. Our Quantum Biology PhD program offers you the chance to pursue interdisciplinary research, whether theoretical or experimental, in this groundbreaking discipline.
As a doctoral candidate, you'll join Surrey's QB-DTC, immersing yourself in a vibrant academic community alongside faculty, postdoctoral researchers, and visiting scientists. During your first year, you'll participate in an interdisciplinary seminar series tailored to bridge knowledge gaps—providing physics fundamentals for biologists and biological concepts for those with physical science or mathematics backgrounds.
