  Antibiotic Photo Disinfection for Oral health
University of Birmingham School of Dentistry
  Prof PR Cooper, Dr M Milward
Applications accepted all year round
Oral diseases are the fourth most expensive diseases to treat globally (WHO, 2005), so developing new therapeutic management strategies to address these unmet needs in our population offers considerable public health benefit as well as potential for new product development.

  Investigating the efficacy of novel antimicrobial mixes on microorganisms, surfaces and cells lines; an integrated study
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr A Kelly, Dr S Schwikkard, Prof D Wertheim
Applications accepted all year round
The projection that within 50 years there will be more deaths from antimicrobial resistance than through cancer highlights the continual need for mining new and novel antimicrobials with activity against planktonic microbes and biofilms alike1.

  Investigation of a probiotic strain of Lactobacillus plantarum 2025 and the development of novel antibacterials
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Prof A Karlyshev
Applications accepted all year round
Background. The rise of multidrug resistant forms of microbial pathogens imposes a serious problem to public health worldwide. The rapid spread of antimicrobial resistance is associated with misuse of conventional antibiotics.
