Improving Access to Classical Studies in Museums and Schools
This follow-on project seeks to improve access to the study of Classical Civilisation and Ancient History by working in partnership with Liverpool World Museum (LWM) and OCR examin...
Improved projections of winds at the crossroads between Antarctica and the Southern Ocean
The coastal region of Antarctica links the Southern Ocean to the Antarctic continent and is where many of the key interactions that govern Antarctica's impact on the global cl...
Quantum Simulators for Fundamental Physics
Experiments are at the heart of physics: for an idea or theory to be taken seriously, it must stand up to rigorous testing.But some areas of fundamental interest, such as the natur...
New geometry from string dualities
The aim of our proposed research is to develop new ideas in geometry using structures that naturally arise in string theory, which in turn feeds back to advance our understanding o...
Crisis of Confidence: The Politics of Evidence and (Mis)Trust in Epidemic Preparedness
Across the world challenges to of scientific expertise are on the rise. Anti-vaccination movements and resurgent measles outbreaks in the United States and Europe have been linked...
From Sensing to Collaboration: Engineering, Exploring and Exploiting the Building Blocks of Embodied Intelligence - An EPSRC Programme Grant
Our robots are too specialised, too impoverished in their sensing, too uncooperative and too unsafe to be productive at scale. To contribute to productivity in strategically import...
EPSRC Hub for Quantitative Modelling in Healthcare
Our Hub brings together a team of mathematicians, statisticians and clinicians with a range of industrial partners, patients and other stakeholders to focus on the development of n...
The ape and the first word: Understanding the origins and evolution of the first linguistic structures in the human clade through comparative research
Language defines being human, but its evolution defies scientific explanation. Progress has been hampered by what great apes (our closest relatives) presumably can and (mostly) can...

COvid-19 Transmission Risk Assessment Case Studies - education Establishments
Schools are planning to re-open in September and with the recent increased awareness of airborne transmission of Covid-19, there is an urgent need to monitor the situation and to p...
Solving Biological Complexity to Engineer Medicines
Drug discovery R&D is in a productivity crisis. It takes 10-15-years to bring a medicine to market, costing $2.6bn, yet just 5% make it to market. Less than 30% of drugs en...
Genomics Enhanced Wheat Breeding: Using sequencing technologies for trait dissection, marker assisted selection and genomic selection in wheat.
Bread wheat accounts for a fifth of the world's food, is the main source of protein in developing countries and is second only to rice as a source of calories in those consume...
Simulating air pollution in the lab
The aim of this research is to apply novel laboratory techniques to simulate wind patterns and air pollution in urban areas.These experiments will provide cutting-edge measurements...
The past, present and future of snow algae in Antarctica: a threatened terrestrial ecosystem?
In Antarctica, less than 0.2% of the land is ice-free for at least part of the year and so is able to support terrestrial life. As in all habitats, these ecosystems have as their b...
From Interparticle Forces to Macroscopic Yielding of Soft Amorphous Solids
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research.This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because i...
