Proton, alpha and gamma irradiation assisted stress corrosion cracking: understanding the fuel-stainless steel interface
The student involved in this project will undertake an experimental research programme aimed at understanding radiation-driven mechanisms which lead to cracking of protective layer...
Development of a new solid tritium breeder blanket
A future power station will employ the fusion of deuterium and tritium, as it requires the lowest temperature to achieve ignition.Deuterium is abundant; however, tritium is only ge...
Field Assisted Sintering of Nuclear Fuel Simulants
The expected remaining lifetime of the UK's Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors (AGRs) will result in the generation of ~5,000t of AGR Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF). The UK Nuclear Decomm...
Understanding how pollutant aerosol particulates impact airway inflammation
Exposure to particulate matter (PM) contributes to respiratory diseases with major impacts from early life exposure yet we know little of the underlying immunological mechanisms. I...
Likelihood and impact of severe space weather events on the resilience of nuclear power and safeguards monitoring.
The project aim is to increase the capability and performance of ground level neutron monitors in differentiating between neutrons of differing origin. Thus, reducing the chances o...
Exploring and Improving Hearing by Cochlear Implant listeners
Cochlear implants (CIs) restore hearing to severely and profoundly deaf people by electrically stimulating the auditory nerve. Many CI patients understand speech well in quiet surr...
Understanding the interplay between the gut microbiome, behavior and urbanisation in wild birds
SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUNDBehaviour facilitates rapid, flexible responses to environmental change. Despite accumulating evidence that intestinal microbiota communities and their genes (...
Landscapes of Music: The more-than-human lives and politics of musical instruments
The landscapes surrounding the German violin-making town of Mittenwald have been strongly shaped by and for the making of bowed string instruments. Over centuries, trees have been...

3D Printing Proteins for Continuous Flow Biocatalysis and Bioabsorbtion
Using puSLA to print hydrogels incorporating enzymes for use in a permeable continuous flow bioreactor. This is in aid of developing the mechanical and flow characteristics of an o...
Distributed Electric Propulsion
This project around distributed electric propulsion aims to build an aerodynamic understanding of the optimal configurations for distributed electric propulsion.Distributed electri...
Tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR) with protein engineering to produce novel yanuthone-based antimicrobial agents
The aim of this project is to produce and characterise a few of the proteins that play key roles in the biosynthetic production of the antimicrobial yanuthone D. Yanuthones are a n...
Optimal utility-based design of oncology clinical development programmes
This project aims at developing a probabilistic framework for comparing sequences of clinical trial designs in oncology.Its main objective is to provide a practical method for impr...
In-situ quality control of material extrusion-based 3D printing for personalised medicines
Advances in the field of pharmacogenomics have provided an impetus for the development and fabrication of personalised pharmaceutical formulations. For instance, three-dimensional...
Exploiting DNS in 3D Design
Research AimsCurrently, unsteady numerical studies with DNS still rely on time averaged quantities. This means that, even today, unsteady flows are still viewed from a fundamentall...
Development of self-assembly trimetallic cryptands as potential anti-cancer drugs
The successful student will join a multidisciplinary research team consisting of chemists (Rice and a PDRA funded by the EPSRC award), cell biologists (Allison) and cancer pharmaco...
Contributions of Prosodic and Lexical Cues to the Decoding of Phonetic Information from Speech
A core aspect of language comprehension is the extraction of phonetic information from speech.This process is non-trivial due to the transient nature of phonetic segments and their...
Digital Glossary of Nuzi Hurrian
After centuries of research, scholars have deciphered most ancient Mesopotamian languages, but a few are still not fully understood. One of these last frontiers is Hurrian. The big...
Simon b. Semah Duran’s Polemic with Islam
Proposed here is a thoroughgoing analysis of the second section of R. Simon b. Semah Durans polemical work Qeshet u-Magen.The academic literature has much to say about the first se...
Glycomics of Residues from Plant-Based Beverages for Microbiota
The growing concern over the environmental impact caused by food industry waste, particularly residues from the production of plant-based beverages, has emphasized the need for mor...
