Leveraging proteomics to discover new biology and therapeutic targets
Proteins circulating in blood are derived from multiple organs and cell types, and therefore provide a "snapshot" of different processes occurring in these cells. Plasma...
Orbital Architectures of Planet-Hosting Multiple-Star Systems
The project involves exploring the influence that stellar companions have on planetary systems by examining the orbits of multiple-star systems from the Kepler exoplanet survey. Th...
History Matching and Gaussian Process Emulation in High Dimensions
When calibrating mathematical models to match data, it is of huge practical interest to quantify our uncertainty; how confident are we in our predictions? in practice, however, man...
Modern Numerical Methods for Huge-Scale Optimization Problems with Time-Dependent PDE Constraints
My research interests are centered around the numerical study of optimal control problems. I am especially interested in computational methods for large-scale systems arising from...
A radical re-imagining of our cities for people and the environment: modelling the health, nutritional and environmental potential from cutting 90% of
This PhD will model the environmental and health impacts of massively reduced car ownership in Edinburgh, & map findings with decision-makers to facilitate policy change
Continuous Learning at the Edge/IoT devices using Meta Learning
Continual Learning is an area of machine learning which deals with learning through time, with changes in environment and tasks to learn. For example, a typical continual learning...
Machine learning and data informatics approaches for Personalised Outcome Prediction in Paediatric Intensive Care
This PhD project will develop machine learning and informatics algorithms for data-driven linkage of clinical data in paediatric critical care settings. We hypothesise that clinica...
Automated Processor Hardware Synthesis
Continuing the line of thought from previous work from my supervisors and senior research group member, the overarching goal of this research is to synthesize processor hardware,...
Use of Thermoplastic Resins in Composite Tidal Turbine Blades: Manufacturing Feasibility and the Impacts of Water Ingress.
This project will evaluate the suitability of thermoplastic resins in the manufacture of thick-section composites found in tidal stream turbine blades. The effect of different man...
Deep Learning guided Imaging to correlate imaging from a whole organ to cellular level
Brief description of the context of the research including potential impact Hierarchical Phase-Contrast Tomography (HiP-CT) is an X-ray technique developed using high-energy X-r...
Precise Nanomedicines guided by Super-Resolution Imaging
T-cells are essential for human immunity, playing a central role in pathogen elimination and tumour surveillance. When they recognise a toxic substance, via the receptors on their...
"Interface Engineering for Maximizing the Efficiency of Halide Perovskite Indoor Photovoltaics"
Indoor photovoltaic (IPVs) devices convert light from artificial light sources such as white LED and fluorescent lamps inside the buildings to electrical energy. IPVs are receiving...
The interplay of atypical protein kinase C and actomyosin regulation in tissue mechanics and cell fate
Many tissues of our bodies are made of sheets of polarised epithelial cells. During development, these features allow tissues to fulfil their physiological function and, during mor...
Artificial Intelligence and Mechanism Design for Optimal Routing of Connected Vehicles
Connected and autonomous vehicles have the potential to make better use of the existing road infrastructure. Furthermore, users have different preferences, such as travel time, con...
Targeting DNA Repair Nucleases for Medicine
Nuclease enzymes are proteins in the body that have been linked with the DNA damage repair process. By inhibiting these nuclease enzymes in cancerous cells, it is thought that the...
Development of cellular labile iron probes as a novel approach for imaging inflammation in chronic disease
Iron is essential to life and synonymous with haemoglobin and oxygen transport around the body. We do however have additional sources and uses for iron outside red blood cells, thi...
Electron Cryo-Ptychography of DNA Organisation Processes
Ptychography is a diffractive imaging technique in which information from overlapping diffraction patterns can be used to solve the phase problem. This allows for imaging biologica...
Error-mitigated algorithms for near-term quantum computers
Quantum computers are predicted to be able to solve certain problems that are beyond the capacity of today's supercomputers. These problems include the modelling and simulation of...
BAS AI Lab
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...
