Computationally-Guided Catalytic Methods for C-C Bond Formation
A fully-funded, industry-linked, PhD Studentship is available in the Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow. Read more
Clinical Gastroenterology: Investigation of Fidaxomicin Resistance Mechanisms in Clostridium difficile
Clostridium difficile is a leading pathogen in healthcare-associated diarrheal infections. C. difficile has a plastic genome with multiple mobile genetic elements and recognized capacity to acquire genes involved in resistance and virulence. Read more
Photo(electro)catalyst development for sustainable C-C coupling
Classical chemical transformations are activated with heat, which is unspecific, energy-intensive, and can compromise yields for endothermal reactions. Read more
Modelling multi-valent ion intercalation in layered MXene materials for next-generation energy storage
Multi-valent ion batteries, including Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, Al3+-based batteries, are potentially safer, cheaper, and have higher energy densities than those of commercial Li-ion batteries (LIBs). Read more
Identification and characterisation of bacteriocins from environmental samples active against strains of Clostridium difficile.
Clostridiodes difficile is a cause of neonatal enteritis in livestock such as pigs, cattle and horses. Affected animals develop respiratory problems, abdominal distention and bloody diarrhoea leading to weight loss and in extreme cases mortality. Read more
PhD in Geographical and Earth Sciences - Tracking the evolution of C-complex asteroids using carbonates
Project aims. This project will explore the evolution of C-complex asteroids during the first few million years of Solar System history. Read more
Understanding the interaction and functional mechanism of mitochondrial MIA pathway
Mitochondria are vitally important organelles of living cells, which generate the primary energy for all biological activities. Mitochondrial dysfunction leads to life threatening diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, stroke, and various neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. Read more
MSc by Research: Analysis of the involvement of mechanosensory system in food search and feeding in C. elegans larvae
Caenorhabditis elegans is a bacterivorous nematode. The genetic tractability, short developmental phase of 2-3 days, and optically transparent soma of 1 mm length make it a very useful model for studying the development of sensory systems for touch, taste and odours. Read more
Computer vision: male c-elegan mating behavious anlaysis
Computer vision technology can be used in behaviour analysis. Read more
Aeroelastic Fatigue Load Analysis of Large Offshore Wind Turbine Blades with Leading Edge Erosion( Ref: CW_2023_18_WSCH_2)
Project Key Words. Aeroelasticity, Fluid Structure Interaction, Wind Turbine Blades. Post summary. 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
Carbon leakage in forest ecosystems – towards understanding the real contribution of forests to mitigate climate change
REFERENCE NUMBER. Please use the following reference number. SCEBE-22SF-CLIFE-Ollauri. Either select from the drop down list or refer to the reference number in the prospective applicant text box if applying that way. Read more
Protecting cells from mechanical stress: A novel role of cell-surface receptor LRP1 in extracellular matrix- nuclei communication.
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
Cellular adaptation to mechanical strain (mechano-adaptation) is increasingly understood to be conferred by Lamin intermediate filament proteins located within the nuclear lamina. Read more
Engineering Education (Remote Laboratories)
Applications are invited for a PhD in Engineering Education based in the Remote Laboratories activity led by Prof Tim Drysdale, Chair of Technology Enhanced… Read more
Structure evolution in complex alloys by analysis of combinatorial complexes
The last couple of decades have been a period of active development and manufacture of new complex-structured bulk materials, such as TWIP steels, nickel superalloys and high-entropy alloys for novel applications in energy and transport industries. Read more
