Antimicrobial resistance dynamics and antimicrobial use in wildlife rehabilitation facilities in the United Kingdom
Supervisors. Dr Fernando Sanchez-Vizcaino Buendia (primary supervisor), Dr Irene Bueno. Background. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest global public health threats of the 21st century (Prestinaci et al. Read more
High throughput screening models for intracellular delivery of antimicrobial nanotherapeutics
Fungal and bacterial infections contribute to over 7 million deaths yearly, affecting over 300 million people globally (. GAFFI. ). Read more
Digital design and advanced processing technologies for antimicrobial nanotherapeutics
Fungal and bacterial infections contribute to over 7 million deaths yearly, affecting over 300 million people globally (GAFFI). Read more
Development of a physiologically relevant platform to inform clinical practice and limit antimicrobial resistance in orthopaedic implants
The World Health Organisation’s “Global Action Plan (GAP) on Antimicrobial Resistance” emphases awareness, education, and prevention, as well as the need for optimisation of current antimicrobial therapies. Read more
Utilisation of novel approaches in the bioprospecting of extreme habitats for novel antimicrobial agents. (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/ALJONES)
Since the discovery of penicillin, bioactive compounds have been sourced from microorganisms, which has led to the development of the majority of our antimicrobial agents. Actinomycetes are the most prolific producers of well-known antibiotics in clinical use, such as Rifampicin and Streptomycin. Read more
iCASE ‘MRC23IIAREx Developing novel microfluidic platforms for antibiotic discovery
Project Summary. Antimicrobial resistance is one of the most pressing public health challenges and threatens the ability to effectively fight infectious diseases, with around 10 million people predicted to die annually of infections by 2050. Read more
Tackling antibiotic seeking in behaviour in veterinary and dental practices
Antimicrobial resistance is a global health and patient safety emergency driven by the unnecessary use of antimicrobial drugs. Dentistry is responsible for around 10% of antibiotics globally, with up to 80% unnecessary of inappropriate use. Read more
Design and Synthesis of novel analogues of Hipposudoric Acid for therapeutic use
Research into novel antimicrobial agents has never been more pressing with the ever-increasing resistance towards traditional medications. Read more
Assessment of microbial community and antimicrobial resistance associated with microplastics in organic-waste and development of smart monitoring technologies for microplastics
Plastic pollution and in particular microplastics (< 5 mm) are a major problem across the globe, affecting oceans, freshwater, soil and organisms but also found in human blood, food and livestock. Read more
Sustainable and controlled drug delivery to fight global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) using hybrid porous nano containers
Research Group:
Chemistry and Biosciences
Growing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the major global challenges and it is often linked to the use of unnecessarily high doses of orally administered antibiotics following medical surgeries and infections. Read more
The development of metal-based antibiotics
Background. Due to the widespread rise in microbial resistance, new classes of antimicrobial agents are urgently needed. However, only very few of the compounds in clinical development represent new structural classes. Read more
Antimicrobial Stewardship and the role of the nurse within the hospital setting: The need to speak up. (Ref: SHLS22103)
Research Group:
Safeguarding Health through Infection Prevention
Background. Antimicrobial resistance is a public health priority with human, financial and social costs. Although Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) has typically been the role of doctors or pharmacists, nurses have a key role in the preservation of antibiotics as one of the main deliverers of patient care.

Eastbio - Nutritional strategies to stimulate endogenous antimicrobial peptides in poultry: A promising alternative to antibiotics with a smart solution for safe and sustainable poultry farming.
Increasing antimicrobial resistance is a global concern for consumers, public health authorities, farmers and food standard agencies. Read more
Antimicrobial resistance in marine mammals (seals) from polluted waters
This project offers the right candidate a £5000 bursary contribution in the first year only. Please contact the supervisor for more detail. Read more
Surfaces for the elimination of Clostridiodes difficile spores
Production of antimicrobial resistant spores by C. difficile and their dispersal in the environment facilitates the transmission of Clostridiodes difficile associated disease, especially in healthcare environments. Read more
