Men’s lives: the consequences of living with high levels of drive for muscularity

Historically, body image research has focused on females and their dieting and weight loss habits. McCreary and Sasse (2000) recognised that although some men desired to be thin for health, occupational, or recreational reasons, high levels of the drive for thinness in men from Western societies is relatively rare.

Repurposing and enriching cardiovascular risk prediction model to identify people at risk of cancer – UCL (part of Health Data Research UK’s Big Data for Complex Disease Driver Programme)

Risk-stratified management of cardiovascular disease (CVD), where people without established disease receive preventative interventions and monitoring based on their 10-years predicted risk, has been highly successful to ensure healthcare resources are allocated to those most likely to benefit.

Biomedical Engineering: Fully Funded Swansea and Boston Scientific Ltd PhD Scholarship: Bioprosthetic Design Evaluation Through Experimental-Computational Techniques

Funding providers: Swansea University's Faculty of Science and Engineering and Boston Scientific Ltd. Subject areas: Experimental Mechanics, Heart Valves, Digital Image Correlation (DIC), Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), Biomechanics, Fluid-Structure Interaction. Read more

Examining the mechanisms that cause cardiovascular disease by studying the heart or adipose tissue

Heart failure has a serious impact on our society and once diagnosed has a poor survival rate. In the United Kingdom, there are about 1.5 million people living with the after-effects of a heart attack. Read more

Impact of Ischaemic Pre-Conditioning on Oxygen Uptake Kinetics: Implications for training and recovery

  Research Group: Cambridge Centre for Sport and Exercise Sciences
Research Group. Cambridge Centre for Sport and Exercise Sciences. Proposed supervisory team. Dr Dan Gordon. Dr Marie Gernigon (External - University of Paris-Saclay). Read more

Mechanisms underlying the effects of activated protein C (APC) in cardiac muscle

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
APC is an anticoagulant enzyme that also exerts antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic and a variety of other cytoprotective effects in different tissues, where the mechanism of action is thought to involve the endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) and a protease activated receptor (PAR).

Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) PhD scholarships in Sport & Physical Activity

Sheffield Hallam University is excited to announce Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) PhD scholarship opportunities in Sport and Physical Activity. Read more

Extracellular vesicles in health and disease

Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is associated with classical and emerging risk factors of cardiovascular disease (CVD), correlates with disease progression and is an independent predictor of the risk of future cardiovascular events. Read more

Molecular mechanisms of the increase in maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) with regular exercise

  Research Group: PENRG - Physiology Exercise and Nutrition Research Group
Performing regular exercise is crucial for good health and wellbeing, whereas failing to perform sufficient exercise increases the risk of diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, etc. Read more

Using CRISPR in iPS cells to modify platelet function

Project Overview. Platelets are the small cells in the blood whose job it is to prevent bleeding. Under normal conditions, when they encounter a damaged blood vessel they become activated and form a thrombus. Read more
