Quantum Inspired Imaging for Disease Diagnosis
This project proposes to explore possible applications of quantum inspired imaging and artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of non-invasive imaging to monitor the health of...
Air pollution and Dementia: Exploring genetic, cardiovascular, and epigenetic moderators and mechanisms
Background: Dementia is a major, growing public health priority. A person's genetic makeup can place them at higher risk of dementia, but there are also important environmental pre...
Total Synthesis of Natural Products
This project is concerned with the total synthesis of complex natural products. A biomimetic approach will be followed and new multi-bond forming domino reaction sequences will be...
Development of biosensor technology for the measurement and control of off-note flavours in the Scotch Whisky industry
This project is a collaboration with the Scotch Whisky Research Institute (SWRI). The aim of the project is to investigate the potential of developing biosensor-based technology to...
Technology development for in situ imaging of microbial cultures
The current standard for estimating the growth of bacterial cultures, optical density (OD) measurements, no longer provides sufficient information needed for academic research, ind...
New Quantum Materials from High Pressure
This project is in the fields of high pressure materials synthesis, quantum magnetism, and low temperature neutron scattering, and is suitable for a student with a first degree in...
Field Theories of Quantum Critical Metals
In certain metals, a phase transition occurs at zero (absolute) temperature as another parameter is varied- the point of transition is know as a Quantum Critical Point (QCP). A qua...
Characterisation of the protein targets of alpha-helix mimetics using chemoproteomics
Characterisation of the protein targets of alpha-helix mimetics using chemoproteomics
Topics in Microstructure: Compatibility and Convergence
In the design of shape-memory alloys for use in applications, significant attention is given to preventing functional fatigue, whereby the material begins to perform significantly...
Feedback from young stars and the triggering of star formation
This project focuses on performing Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations to model star formation process and investigating the various factors which impact on it. For e...
Nucleation and Growth of Membrane Protein Crystals
Understanding nucleation and growth of membrane protein crystals in detergent and lipid systems is key to optimising protein crystal quality and hence the resolution of structures...
Novel Rotor Design for Cost Optimised, High Temperature, High Speed Aerospace Applications
Novel Rotor Design for Cost Optimised, High Temperature, High Speed Aerospace Applications
Using fatberg waste as a feedstock to produce fragrance compounds in engineered E. coli
The 'upcycling' of low-value material is a major focus of current research in biotechnology and has the potential to significantly reduce our society's reliance on fossil fuels by...
Structure-function analyses of aphid effector-target interaction
Aphids are phloem-feeding insects that induce extensive feeding damage, achieve high population densities, and transmit economically important plant viruses. With increasing restri...
Topics in theoretical atmospheric and astrophysics, fluid turbulence and chaos theory.
Theoretical research in the areas of planetary dynamics, atmospheric dynamics, astrobiology, condensed matter physics and mathematical physics.
Computational Biophysics of Synthetically Engineered Protein Nanopores
The project will apply molecular modelling and simulations to the development of synthetically augmented transmembrane protein nanopores. The project brings together the expertise...
MAC-MIGS is a collaborative degree
MAC-MIGS is a collaborative degree with the first year of intensive training. The PhD project is started in year 2 - 2022.
Exploring the formation of the first galaxies with VISTA and JWST.
My research aims to understand how and when the first galaxies formed in the universe and to understand their properties and evolution. Much progress has been made in the last deca...
Development of new amine donors for biocatalysis
Natural and engineered biocatalysts are already having impact in the manufacture of high value pharmaceuticals by catalysing the conversion of functional groups in high yield. The...
Precision measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson using data from the ATLAS experiment at the LHC.
I am working on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The ATLAS collaboration are constantly striving to improve our understanding of the Standard Model and be...
