Vibrational control of enzymes as a tool for enzyme engineering
Project Summary The vast majority of biological reactions are catalysed by enzymes, which often exhibit exquisite selectivity and massive catalytic rate enhancements. In many cas...
Turning the tables: fighting furniture poverty through social enterprise
This project, developed collaboratively between the University of Liverpool and Liverpool's Furniture Resource Centre (FRC), explores how FRC fights furniture poverty - the inabili...
Burgeoning liminality: artistic interventions in visual culture from Northern Ireland post-2016 EU referendum.
My research will analyse how artistic collectives in Northern Ireland are creating spaces and practices where solutions to the tensions reignited by Brexit can be imagined and tri...
In-situ x-ray and electrochemical characterisation of energy materials
The development of new materials for electrocatalysis is of central importance for clean energy applications. Whilst the design of new active and stable electrode materials is a...
Quantitative X-ray Phase Contrast Imaging
1) Brief description of the context of the research including potential impact X-rays are unique for investigating bulky and opaque samples, as their broad use in medicine, secu...

The thermal blanketing effect of supercontinents on the formation of Proterozoic anorthosites
During the Proterozoic era, spanning from 2.6 to 0.5 billion years ago, the Earth witnessed the assembly of two "supercontinents", Nuna and Rodinia, when all continents converged i...
Interactions between language and cognition in deaf individuals
Over 90% of deaf children are born to hearing parents. These children are at risk of delays in language and cognitive development due to diminished early language input. Impoverish...
