A Joined-up Approach for New Molecular Simulation Technologies To Harness Ultrafast Photochemistry
Light triggers many important chemical reactions. These include photosynthesis, which converts sunlight to chemical energy and powers most life on earth, human vision, where light...
Creative Approaches to Race and In/security in the Caribbean and the UK (CARICUK)
Creative Approaches to Race and In/security in the Caribbean and the UK (CARICUK) is a year-long collaboration between artists and educators. It aims to transform discussions about...
Practice and theory in the design of martensitic steels
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...
Molecular Level Understanding of New Particle Formation in the Urban Atmosphere: Contribution of Local Pollutants
Airborne particles are made up of tiny specks of solid matter or liquid droplets floating in the air, too small to be seen individually by the naked eye. Gaining a good understandi...

Rapid Decontamination System of PPE and Medical Equipment for Reuse using Flexible Non-thermal Plasma Generator
This project aims to develop a method and procedure for decontaminating mask/respirators using non-thermal plasma for safely reuse. As a respirator is a basic personal protective e...
Ferroelectricity and the nematic liquid crystal phase
The nematic phase (N) is the least ordered liquid crystal phase, and in which the long axes of the rod-like molecules are more or less aligned in the same direction, known as the d...
The gender gap in pay progression: job mobility and job ladders
The median gender pay gap has declined dramatically in the UK from 36.4% in the 1970 (O'Reilly, Smith et al. 2015) to around 18% in the most recent data (ONS 2018). Still, by...
Quantum Simulators for Fundamental Physics
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...
Imagining Posthuman Care
According to the Office for National Statistics, the U.K. has an ageing population. Statisticians predict that "more than a quarter of UK residents will be aged 65-years o...
Reimagining the Pacific: Images of the Ocean in Chile and Peru, c.1960 to the present
Coastal communities around the world are facing significant challenges, both ecological (such as rising sea temperatures) and as a consequence of human activity (for instance throu...
The Beat of Our Hearts - Staging new histories of LGBTQ+ loneliness
Many LGBTQ+ people in Britain have been subject to exclusion and isolation, both historically and in at present. This can result from explicit discrimination and hostility in famil...
A novel biocatalyst platform for biobased-synthesis of 1,3-propanediol
Biomanufacturing has emerged as a promising alternative to chemocatalysis for green, renewable, complex synthesis of biofuels, medicines, and fine chemicals. Cell-free chemical bio...
Co-Benefits of Largescale Organic Farming on Environmental and Human Health (BLOOM): A Natural Experiment in Andhra Pradesh, India
The way that we produce food has changed profoundly, and, as a result, so too has our dietary intake. Whilst these changes have resulted in unprecedented declines in undernutrition...
Does CRISPR-Cas immunity limit the effectiveness of phage therapy?
Globally rising rates of resistance against all major classes of chemotherapeutic antibiotics has renewed interest in the therapeutic use of phages to treat bacterial infections.As...
