Bed Theory: Uncovering Disabled Perspectives in Labour Theory
This project draws on a long and largely un-named tradition of recumbent theorising, from Marcel Proust's bedbound writing of In Search of Lost Time, through Franz Kafka'...
CFD Modelling of vortex reactors for precipitation reactions in the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel
Reprocessing of waste from nuclear reactors in order to recover and reuse uranium (U) and plutonium (Pu) plays a critical role in the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) management. The propo...
'Augustus John: Reassessing the Collections at Amgueddfa Cymru, Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru, and Prifysgol Aberystwyth University
Augustus John (1878-1961) prophetically remarked that he would become known as the brother of Gwen John (1876-1939), yet there has been a resurgence of interest in the painter once...
Computational Investigations into the Role of the Alkali Metal Counterions in Main Group Complexes
TBC 24/25
Strong-Field Gravity and Beyond: Numerical Relativity and Advanced Computational Simulations
This PhD project consists of the study of gravity in the strong gravity regime through numerical relativity (NR). NR is the art of solving the Einstein equation with computers.The...
Understanding the Drivers of Change in the UK's Largest Freshwater Ecosystem
Lough Neagh is the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles, covering 383 km2 with a mean depth of 8.9 meters. It is fed by 6 main rivers, and is surrounded by wetlands, marshe...
High Throughput Solid State Synthesis of Functional Inorganic Materials for Net Zero Applications
High Throughput Solid State Synthesis of Functional Inorganic Materials for Net Zero Applications
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...
Integrated PhD Biomedical Science
In the first year of the Integrated PhD, John Holloway will attend an induction and introductory training programme followed by taught modules in Research Skills for Biomedical Sci...
Non invasive methods to accelerate the development of injectable therapeutic depots
Our vision is to create a low-cost, non-invasive depot monitoring tool that can provide key information about the state of an injected depot in real time. This low-cost device will...
Grow or mow? Managing urban grasslands for pollinator conservation and soil ecosystem services
Urban expansion is a key threat to global biodiversity, with 70% of the global human population predicted to be living in urban areas by 2050. Urban grasslands comprise significant...
The role of trees in maintaining biodiversity resilience and habitat connectivity in agricultural landscapes
Background.Woodlands are increasingly recognised as key semi-natural habitats providing landscape complementarity to the seasonal availability of resources needed for farmland inse...
Understanding the factors governing vascular and glymphatic water transport in the brain in health and disease
The brain's vasculature is highly specialised. It tightly regulates transfer of essential molecules and ions into the brain, constantly maintaining a carefully balanced extrac...
Proton transport and energy deposition in high-energy density matter
Aims and Objectives:Ion stopping and transport in warm dense matter is a process of fundamental importance for the understanding of the properties of dense plasmas, and for technic...
1+3 PhD first year MSc Compound Semiconductor Electronic Engineering
1+3 PhD where the first year is based in Cardiff University, taking MSc programme in either Compound Semiconductor Physics or Compound Semiconductor Electronic Engineering.
Beyond the Toilet Block: Governmentality and the Construct(ion) of 'Sanitary Subjects' in Mumbai's Informal Settlements
Sanitation in urban Mumbai is more than just a matter of building and maintaining infrastructure like toilets; it is a complex interaction of social practices, policies, and identi...
Low-cost technologies for high-quality air pollution monitoring
Outdoor air pollution causes 4.2 million premature deaths globally each year. Air pollution in most parts of the world is currently assessed using expensive ground-based sensors. T...
Losing their Cool: are high-elevation heat exchanges warming Himalayan glaciers?
We recently discovered that over half of the ablation area of one of the world's highest glaciers, Khumbu Glacier, Nepal, comprises ice that is at the melting point. Moreover,...
The Growth and Decline of North East Jewish Communities, 1881-2000 (Staff-led CDA)
This project partners with the Tyne & Wear Archives (TWA) to explore why Jewish communities in the North East, which grew rapidly in the period after 1881, declined dramati...
Probing Beyond the Standard Model physics effects in hadronic b-meson decays at LHCb
Recent theoretical advances have uncovered significant and consistent disagreements between the SM predictions and experimental determinations of the rates of some of flavour physi...
