There is much interest in 3D heterocyclic scaffolds for medicinal chemistry. Within fragment-based drug discovery, we are developing a synthetic platform to enable the elaboration of 2D fragments into 3D lead compounds, addressing limitations highlighted by industry. Read more
Commercial partner: PeptiMatrix. Extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes around 20% of the adult brain volume and plays an important role in brain function and disease. Read more
This project aims to design new computational algorithms at the interface of statistical modelling, optimization and deep learning to solve multimodal inverse problems for 3D imaging. Read more
Background. Small molecule drug discovery projects are time-consuming and expensive. More than half of that cost and even more of the time of each project is taken up by chemical synthesis. Read more
To ensure the practical viability of 3D printed structures in engineering applications, the mitigation of crack formation under diverse loads and environmental conditions is imperative. Read more
The project will be aligned with the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training CDT in Distributed Algorithms:The What, How and where of Next-Generation Data Science. Read more
Imaging blood flow in the brain is crucial to diagnose neurological disorders such as strokes and aneurysms, understand their root causes, and develop better treatments. Read more
This is a self-funded opportunity. Project advert. Digital ulcers are common in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), occurring in up to 50% of patients, and often early in the disease course. Read more
The current landscape for medical treatment centers on the “one size fits all” approach where almost all patients are given the same drugs at the same frequencies. Read more
Background. Neurological diseases are currently the 2nd leading cause of death, and the leading cause of disability adjusted life years (DALY) worldwide1. Read more
Three-dimensional forming refers to the fabrication of structure through layer-by-layer deposition of material using a printer head, a nozzle or other printing techniques. Read more
BCAST (Brunel Centre for Advanced Solidification Technology – PhD Studentship. “Simulation and experimental research of two different bending processes. Read more
Project Overview. This project offers an exciting opportunity to use hydrogels and 3D printing to engineer a segment of the spinal cord, which could be further developed into a transplant for patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Read more
