Social Media Mechanisms Affecting Adolescent Mental Health (SoMe3)
Adolescents estimate that they spend just under 5 hours online every day. This is almost as much time as they spend at school, with the average UK school day lasting 6.5 hours. Ado...
2022BBSRC-NSF/BIO: Self-replicating synthetic cells programmed by RNA
For as long as us humans have been aware that there is a clear difference between living and inanimate matter, we have been trying to answer a fundamental question: what makes some...
Feedback and Yields from Very Massive Stars
``How did the Universe begin and evolve'' is a key science challenge. We address this question by modelling physical processes from the micro (nuclear scales) to the macro scales (...
Collaborative Research: NSFGEO-NERC: Advancing capabilities to model ultra-low velocity zone properties through full waveform Bayesian inversion and geodynamic modeling
This proposal will improve the description of features called Ultra-Low Velocity Zones (ULVZs). ULVZs are thin patches of material that sit on the Earth’s core-mantle boundary (CM...

Developmental origins of child neurodevelopment: Novel approaches to clinical risk prediction using an international metadataset.
Approximately 1 in 10 children under 5 years of age, globally, are at risk of delayed development. The lifecourse impact of this is substantial with cognitive, motor and language d...
Algorithms and Complexity for Economic Environments (ACEE)
The project studies the computational complexity of finding stable and desirable outcomes in economic environments. Examples of such environments are: - auctions of goods, for...
Collaborative Research: Bridging the scale gap between local and regional methane and carbon dioxide isotopic fluxes in the Arctic
Northern latitudes are warming at twice the global mean, making carbon stored in permafrost increasingly vulnerable to thaw and decomposition by microbes, potentially leading to la...
REGULATING THE FLOW: Uncovering How Roots Sense and Respond to Water Availability
Climate change has led to a concerning decline in soil water availability, posing a threat to both UK and global agricultural productivity. Therefore, understanding how roots sense...
Individual differences in affective processing and implications for animal welfare: a reaction norm approach
Individuals differ in how they view the world. Some are more optimistic than others about the future or the outcome of ambiguous situations. Some are more sensitive to stimuli that...
Predicting Care Needs of Older Persons in the Healthcare System through AI-enabled Analysis of Patient-Monitoring Data (PAI)
Problem: Increased care demand of older people and limited healthcare staff resourcesEvery country is experiencing growth in both the size and proportion of older persons in the po...
Digitizing and Automating the Diagnostic psychiatric Assessment Process
The DADAP project aims to transform the diagnostic assessment process in the clinical care pathway of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (CAP) by digitizing and automating it using an...
Drivers of environmentally friendly farming distribution and their impact on sustainability performance at different scales: a mixed methods approach
The UK's withdrawal from the European Union was an opportunity to reform agricultural policy to better align with sustainability goals and address limitations of agri-environment s...
Next generation chemoenzymatic peptide synthesis (NXPEP)
Recently the Micklefield lab has made major breakthroughs in the discovery, characterisation and engineering of novel enzymes for use in synthesis. In addition, we have pioneered n...
Multimodal analysis of the construction of sexual violence narratives on YouTube
Context The #MeToo Movement has transformed sharing sexual violence narratives into a form of feminist activism on social media. Existing literature on #MeToo primarily focuses on...
Harnessing DNA methylation variation between populations to understand disease discordance across ancestries
DNA methylation (DNAm) is an epigenetic mechanism that plays a central role in gene regulation. It helps to define how cells respond to genetic and environmental signals and, ultim...
Learning to Govern: Disipline, ritual, and political networks at an elite Thai school
My research explores how elite educational institutions create and maintain influential political networks in contemporary Thailand. During my fellowship I will publish an institut...
