New reaction strategies using gold catalysis
I have developed research skills through several projects during my degree. In my penultimate year I undertook two separate projects, one involved the templated synthesis of fluori...
To listen, to write, and to perform: Cosmopolitan Women's Networks of Musical Experience, 1887-1920
This is the first sustained study of music and cosmopolitanism in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century women's writing.Focusing on the period 1887-1920, I will reveal...
Novel approaches for cleaning up radionuclide nanoparticle pollutants in the environment
Colloids and Nanoparticles (NPs) have potential to significantly enhance the mobility of radionuclides in the environment, either through the adsorption of radionuclides onto their...
PhD projects to be confirmed on completion of the training year.
MIBTP students undertake a period of training during their first year. This includes compulsory taught modules in statistics, programming, data analysis, AI and mini research proje...
Understanding how uveal melanoma cells render themselves invisible to- and manipulate the immune system to survive within the eye and liver
Summary:Background: Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Despite excellent local control of the eye cancer, ~50% of patients develop fat...

mRNA cap methylation - localisation and mechanisms in gene expression and RNA therapeutics
This project offers a blend of cutting-edge fundamental research in the rapidly evolving field of mRNA modifications (the "epitranscriptome") and its applications...
to follow
This student is enrolled on the Interdisciplinary Bioscience DTP CDT funded through EPSRC CDT grant.The research project and department will be chosen at the end of the first year...
Noisy eaters: acoustic feeding cues as social information in socially-foraging fishes and crustaceans
Animals use information from multiple sensory modalities to carry out behaviours which are essential for survival (e.g., foraging, predator detection).This information comes from a...
Unravelling the biophysics of membrane protein-lipid interactions using coherent optical nanoscopy and molecular dynamics
The interaction between proteins and lipids on the membrane of cells is fundamental to life. This is regulated by biophysical mechanisms ranging from how proteins move/diffuse with...
Dietary adaptation of Bifidobacterium in the weaning infant gut
The infant gut is a complex, constantly adapting ecosystem which shows distinct shifts as a consequence of introducing solid foods, which can have lifelong health impacts. An impor...
Targeted gene therapies for spinal cord regeneration.
Spinal cord injury presents a debilitating and often insurmountable medical condition characterised by a disruption to axons running through the spinal cord. Due to the poor regene...
Investigating a novel relationship between proteins regulating cell division and DNA repair
n this investigation, we explore recent scientific advancements that unveil the molecular mechanisms of key cellular processes, providing insights into regulation of mitosis and DN...
Novel architectures for neutral atom quantum computing
Research context and potential impact:Neutral atoms in tweezer arrays have rapidly become a competitive platform for quantum computing, with demonstrated two-qubit gate fidelities...
Integrated Self-Optimisation of API Synthesis and Crystallisation Using Machine Learning: Next-Generation Pharmaceutical Process Development
Pharmaceutical manufacturing demands precise control over chemical reactions and crystallisation processes to ensure the quality and efficacy of drug products. A holistic, self-opt...
An Ethnographic Investigation into Young Women's Experiences Of 'Trauma-informed' Practices in Prison.
This doctoral project proposes using feminist ethnographic research to explore the perception, impact and structures of trauma-informed practices within women's prisons.This p...
Lubrication by Lamellar Liquid Crystals - An in-situ investigation of thin films with Brewster Angle microscopy technology
Tribology/lubrication are enabling technologies which can mitigate the 23% (119 EJ) of the world energy consumption originating from tribological contact. Potential savings estimat...
Numerical Optimization for Dynamic Optimization Problems
Many complex decision making processes can be formulated as control problems. This can be incredibly valuable since control theory can also describe the best decision to make given...
Investigation on Digital Twin in Healthcare Facility Management
In terms of production of new knowledge, understanding scientific reasoning is not only a fascinating and difficult endeavor in and of itself, but also a means by which we might im...
Ultraluminous X-ray sources - X-ray astronomy - multi-wavelength astronomy - black holes - neutron stars - accretion
This project will seek to deepen our understanding of the nature and phenomenology of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs).We will use the extensive observational archives of the cur...
