PhD: Optical Imaging of Corneal Biomechanics
The cornea is the main refractive element of the eye, its shape, governed by its biomechanical properties is responsible for the clarity of our vision. Read more

Neuromusculoskeletal biomechanics
Humans are bodies; and bodies are movement. Read more
Modern human variation as a model for locomotor evolution in ancestral hominins
The transition to terrestrial bipedalism represents a defining episode in the history of our species. Understanding how, when, and why upright bipedalism evolved in hominins requires the biomechanics of fossil organisms to be analysed. Read more
Moving softly: how the interplay of neuronal circuits and biomechanics enables complex movement in soft-bodied animals
Soft bodied animals can radically change their body shape, squeeze through cracks, then crawl, roll, tunnel, or even jump. Controlling soft bodies is difficult because they have highly non-linear physical properties and virtually unlimited degrees of freedom. Read more
A novel computational biomechanics framework to model vascular mechanopropagation and single cell mechanosensing
The mechanical stimuli generated by body exercise can be transmitted from cortical bone into the deep bone marrow. A mechanosensitive perivascular stem cell niche is recently identified within the bone marrow for osteogenesis and lymphopoiesis. Read more
Biomechanics and wearable sensors
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
Development of new soft tissue repair devices
3 Year PhD studentship linked to Lockdown Medical Ltd. The studentship will cover Home fees and stipend. Start date July or October 2023. Read more
Royal Navy Musculoskeletal Injury Mitigation Programme, PhD Programme 1: Prospective, longitudinal study of anthropometric factors and lower limb biomechanics during military specific tasks and musculoskeletal injury risk
Location. Department of Public Health and Sports Sciences, St Luke’s Campus, Exeter. Read more
Funded PhD Studentship in Craniofacial Biomechanics
PhD project description. The human skull consists of several bones that are joined together along their edges by dense soft tissues called sutures. Read more
Understanding the biomechanics of vibro-tactile perception
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
Novel materials for ankle ligament repair
Chronic ankle instability affects about 30% of patients who have experienced a severe ankle sprain. Around 60% of these will have degeneration of the ankle and develop osteoarthritis - a debilitating condition. Read more

Walking on ageing feet: heel impact and forefoot deformation throughout the life course
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
In this project you will address two biomechanical functions of the human foot that are often affected during ageing. (1) impact absorption during heel strike and (2) dynamic foot deformation (toe spreading) during mid-late stance. Read more
