The role of oculoproprioception in the neural control of ocular alignment: Understanding disease mechanisms in strabismus
Strabismus (squint or crossed eyes) is one of the most common and debilitating eye disorders in childhood. Individuals with this condition cannot align the two eyes to look at the...
Simulating the beginnings of planet formation
Protostars are born with dusty gas discs, as part of the star-forming process. Planets form within these protoplanetary discs through the gradual growth of solid dust particles int...
PINN-PORT: Automated Physics-Informed Neural Network Modeling and Application Software for Tsunami Risk Assessment in Ports: Application to Indonesia
Project PINN-PORT aims to develop an automated GIS framework and two application software for assessing tsunami hazards and their impact on industrial infrastructures in ports. Th...
Mapping tumour molecular mechanisms associated with common exposures: a new approach to identifying targets to prevent and treat cancer
Every year, over 360,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with cancer and around 160,000 die as a result of the disease. Cancer costs the NHS over £5 billion annually, while th...
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Sustainable Sound Futures
Earth is a Noisy Planet. Human activity means that from megacities to oceans, most places are infected with noise and tranquility is disappearing. This was starkly illustrated duri...
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Sensor Technologies and Applications in an Uncertain World
The proposed EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Sensor Technologies in an Uncertain World (Sensor CDT) will educate leaders who can effectively address the challenges of an incr...
Africa's Long Depression: The Growth and Debt Crises of 1975-2000
In the 1980s and 1990s, most countries in Africa saw their economies shrink as demand for their exports weakened, government indebtedness increased, and countries faced political u...
Integration of Phylogenomic and Fossil Evidence Reveals the Evolution of Polyneoptera
Insects constitute more than half of all documented animal species, and the only group of flying invertebrates. Polyneoptera represents one of the major lineages of winged insects...
CLOT BUSTING - ADVANCED RHEOMETRY FOR INFORMING THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUTURE THROMBOLYTIC THERAPIES
Thrombosis (i.e blood clotting) is a leading cause of mortality globally and includes diseases such as stroke, heart attack and deep vein thrombosis. Stroke is the third leading ca...
Bridging the Gap: Socioeconomic Status, the Pace of Brain Development, and Cognitive Function in Young People
Low socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with lower cognitive performance, academic achievement, and long-term success during childhood. These disparities have significant cost...
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Chemical Synthesis for a Healthy Planet
Humanity faces critical global challenges in supplying clean energy, food, medicines and materials for a population forecast to reach 10 billion by 2050. Chemical synthesis will pl...
HearFit: Hearable Sensing Systems and Machine Learning for Health and Fitness
Wearable devices have become pervasive and generating a lot of data which is indicative of our behaviour and physiology. This offers an unprecedented and detailed window onto human...
Decoding the mild pathobiology of common cold coronaviruses to identify targets of pan-coronavirus antiviral strategies
The impact of coronaviruses (CoVs) like SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 (causing COVID-19) extends beyond 6.5 million deaths globally and significant financial strain, profoundl...
The pulsar population: revealing the extreme physics of neutron stars at the intersection of statistics, citizen science and machine-learning
How do pulsars form, evolve and behave? And how can we apply this to use them as precision tools to probe fundamental laws of physics and the invisible structures of the universe?...
Peer-led service delivery model to increase HIV prevention and contraception in pregnant and lactating adolescent girls and young women in Zimbabwe
IIn Zimbabwe HIV remains the leading cause of death. In 2020, 1 in 8 adults were living with HIV. Of these, in 2023: 95% were diagnosed with HIV, 94% of those diagnosed were on ant...
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Machining, Assembly, and Digital Engineering for Manufacturing (MADE4Manufacturing)
This CDT will train the next generation of manufacturing researchers with unique capabilities to combine predictive models and in-process data, with a systems perspective, to enabl...
Meta-fibres: Optical fibres with meta-surfaces for advanced optical biopsy through needles
My 7-year vision for this fellowship is to design, build and test hair-thin imaging devices that can better see diseases such as cancer in previously inaccessible areas of the body...
MAPFSI: Multiphysics Simulation of Magneto-Active Polymers and their Fluid-Structure Interaction
However, simulation of such three-level multiphysics interactions at the interface between nonlinear mechanics of soft solids, electromagnetism, and fluid mechanics in intricate re...
Exploring Regulatory T Cells' Impact on Endothelial Dysfunction in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Using a Vasculature-on-a-Chip Model
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) disrupts endothelial cell function, leading to complications in placental development and posing long-term risks of diabetes and cardiovascular...
Developing a framework using causal modelling to inform the design and evaluation of antibiotic stewardship and infection control interventions in resource-limited hospital settings.
In many middle-income countries, antibiotics are widely overused in hospitals in part due to limited evidence to inform the design of antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programmes. Mo...
