A fully funded PhD position is available at Dr. Choon Hwai Yap’s lab at Imperial College. We seek a talented and highly-motivated PhD student, to engage in innovative research concerning machine learning applied to image processing and biomechanics of the fetal heart. Read more
Applications are invited for a research studentship in the field of spine biomechanics, leading to the award of a PhD degree. The post is supported by a bursary and fees (at the home student rate). Read more
Project Overview. Movement analysis and recording in humans has been confined to dedicated gait and motion capture facilities, but this only records movements for a single part of one day in an unusual environment. Read more
This project will build on previous research within the department to measure the ability of different users to perceive and respond to vibro-tactile interfaces (such as those used in phones and tablet devices). Read more
The ability to perceive biological motion directly feeds into clinical and veterinary practice. Veterinarians frequently inspect gait as a means of diagnosing conditions such as lameness. Read more
Applications are invited for a research studentship in the field of mechanics of bone across the scales, leading to the award of a PhD degree. Read more
Loughborough University is a top-ten rated university in England for research intensity (REF, 2014) and an outstanding 66% of the work of Loughborough’s academic staff who were eligible to be submitted to the REF was judged as ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, compared to a national average figure of 43%.

Penguins are highly adapted for both efficient cruising and rapid manoeuvring during underwater locomotion. From a biomechanical perspective some progress has been made into understanding the fluid dynamics surrounding their morphology, including the potential role of bubbles in reducing drag. Read more
Post summary. Applications are invited for suitably qualified candidates interested in pursuing a PhD by completing a multidisciplinary and novel research project in the Department of Sport & Exercise Science at WIT in conjunctions with an experienced supervisor in University of Ulster. Read more
The goal of this project is to build a new model of muscle contraction called the Active Spring Muscle Model (ASMM) and to verify the model in human gait mechanics. Read more
Project detail. Applications are invited for a PhD studentship supported by the School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences and the England and Wales Cricket Board. Read more
Project Description. This project is part of multidisciplinary team that is developing advanced extracellular matrix (ECM) derived biomaterials for use as injectables and 3D bioprinting applications for intervertebral disc regeneration. Read more
