Ethanol V4 Engine Adaptation
We propose the development and adaptation of an existing petrol-powered V4 Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) to run on ethanol derived from agricultural waste slurry. This project i...
Quantum Control with Quantum Fields
Controlling and manipulating quantum systems using electromagnetic fields underpins many cutting-edge quantum technologies. Typically, these fields are assumed to be classical. Rec...
A novel Bayesian methodology to estimate unobserved traits of cattle for AI assisted prec
"The traditional method of feeding livestock is to feed them according to the requirements of the 'average' individual within a group and feed them as a group. T...
Determining the nature and drivers of Earth's first metazoan radiation and subsequent extinction: The Cambrian 'Explosion' and Sinsk Event
The Cambrian Radiation, starting ca. 540 million years ago (Ma), marks the appearance of abundant and diverse animals (metazoans) in the fossil record. This radiation may have been...
Processing Infinite Data Streams
The objective of this PhD research proposal is to determine the power and limitations of sliding window algorithms for processing massive data sets.While the research literature on...
Star-formation processes in the first billion years
I will use ALMA and JWST data to study gas, dust and stellar components in UV-bright Lyman break galaxies at redshifts > 6.I will use the properties of each component to put...

Elucidating the role of protein-protein interactions in photosynthesis using novel nanotechnology combined with advanced microscopy
Photosynthesis is responsible for life on Earth but many questions remain unanswered. The chloroplasts of green plants contain specialized membranes that absorb sunlight and act li...
Bootstrapping string theory
The AdS/CFT conjecture provides an exact description of string theory in negative spacetime curvature in terms of conformal field theory (CFTs) that lives on the boundary.These CFT...
GIANT FISHES AND HARPOONS: FROM MATERIAL CULTURE TO NEW WAYS OF CONSERVATION
Can a harpoon be an ally for the conservation of fish in a protected area and simultaneously ensure economic stability for small-scale fishers?My research aims to address this seem...
Anti-caste herstories: Re-cognising the unrecognised embodied ancestral knowledge of dalit womxn
Purity and pollution are central to casteist oppression; accordingly, the spatiality, crafts, food and touch formed by a dalit body are considered 'untouchable'.Counter t...
Unravelling the role of G-quadruplex structures in brain ageing and neurodegeneration
The increasing incidence of neurodegenerative disorders is posing a significant threat to the NHS and public health services world-wide.Epigenetic regulation has emerged as a criti...
Mapping 3D flows around ciliated organisms using holographic optical tweezers
The aim of this project is to measure and model complex biological flows in and around living systems.In particular, we will focus on imaging the 3D flow patterns produced by the b...
HISTORY OF THE LUNAR SURFACE
The Moon's surface has been shaped by multiple impacts and so records the impact history of the inner solar system.Any individual fragment of material from lunar regolith (&am...
