Caspase-8 mediated control of CNS infection
PROJECT SUMMARY The brain is a unique environment in the context of infection. Many brain cells are long-lived and irreplaceable. To combat central nervous system (CNS) infection...
Bispecific antibody for topical administration to prevent gonorrhea
1 Gonorrhea affects over 80 million individuals globally, annually. Over 700,000 cases were reported to the CDC 2 in 2021, a relentless rise since 2009. Women suffer the most ser...
RAISE: CET: Co-development of engineering energy literacy and engineering identities through campus decarbonization research
This Research Advanced by Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering (RAISE) award is made in response to Dear Colleague Letter 23-109, as part of the NSF-wide Clean Energy Technolo...
Theory and Simulation of Laser-dressed Molecules and Materials
Ignacio Franco of the University of Rochester is supported by an award from the Chemical Theory, Models and Computational Methods program in the Division of Chemistry to develop th...
Elucidating mechanistic processes governing interaction of viruses with non-biological indoor built surfaces
Viruses are released into indoor air through activities such as sneezing. Once airborne, viruses travel through an unpredictable route, potentially landing on indoor surfaces where...
Rapid Engagement with Stressed Peatland Environments and Communities in Transformation [RESPECT]
Context: Peatlands are one of the world's most important habitats and the largest terrestrial carbon store. However, 80% of UK peatlands are damaged and deteriorating, meaning they...
Solvent-induced interactions for controlling nanoparticle adhesion at nanostructured liquid-solid interfaces
This project will produce new fundamental knowledge to understand and control the physical adhesion and aggregation of nanomaterials in liquid by considering the effects of so-call...
Dynamics of Few-Body Systems
The goal of this theory project is to develop a quantum-mechanical treatment of the time evolution of small systems of atoms or molecules interacting with one another. It is expec...
Imaging and Controlling Electronic Dynamics in Matter: from Isolated Atoms to Nanostructures
Photoelectron emission is a fundamental light-matter interaction process. It occurs when light with an appropriate wavelength and intensity strikes a material object, interacts wit...
Estimating the impact of urban environmental exposures on trajectories of child and adolescent mental health
BACKGROUND Urban noise exposures affect millions of people in the UK. Environmental noise exposures have been associated with 1000 premature deaths, 6000 cases of heart disease an...
Nucleation and Extinction in Nonequilibrium Statistical Field Theories
Many mathematical models address systems with so many degrees of freedom (such as the positions and velocities of molecules in a fluid) that they are best described by continuous f...
Loss of Trust: investigating the relationship between traumatic events, trust and social functioning in refugees and asylum seekers using mixed method
"Theoretical background: Our ability to trust others is critical for healthy social interactions, and people who are more trusting of others, are more likely to have greater l...

This project falls within the EPSRC information and communication technologies theme, specifically under Artificial intelligence technologies. Introduction and context Understand...
Cartographies of Catastrophe: Precarious Futures in Contemporary Spanish American Speculative Fiction
My research project focuses on the creation of disastrous futures in a corpus of contemporary non-mimetic fiction from Spanish America, examining the interplay between catastrophe,...
The mental health and wellbeing of Ukrainian adolescent girls and young women living in the United Kingdom since the onset of the Russia-Ukraine war
The Russia-Ukraine war has displaced 6.2 million Ukrainians across Europe, with 247,000 seeking refuge in the United Kingdom (UK). Among them, adolescent girls and young women (AGY...
Cognitive Robotics for Aircraft Disassembly
Over 30,000 commercial aircraft are estimated to be decommissioned over the next 20 years. It is identified recycling these aircraft is key to decarbonising the global aviation ind...
Understanding the energy system and energy-economy and impacts of low energy demand futures
Energy demand reduction (EDR) is one of three levers (alongside renewables and carbon sequestration) that can be utilised to reduce GHG emissions, achieved via energy efficiency (l...
My Message to the Women of our Nation: feminist posters in the shadow of Thatcher, 1970 - 1989.
