Characterising Growth and Depletion of Low Adhesion Layers to enable Superior Railhead Cleaning Strategies
Low adhesion still remains a problem on the railway network, as exemplified by the recent passenger train collision near Salisbury. Read more
Antimicrobial resistance in marine mammals (seals) from polluted waters
This project for self-funded students only addresses an urgent Global Challenge – the growing widespread incidence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Read more
Using machine learning to facilitate rapid and efficient responses to gastrointestinal disease outbreaks
The project. Illness caused by the consumption of contaminated food is a major threat to public health and requires significant resources to identify the source of infections. Read more
GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: How are antifungal usage and environment change on our farms driving cross-resistance in clinical pathogens?
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the GW4 BioMed2 MRC Doctoral Training Partnership which is offering up to 20 studentships for entry in October 2023. Read more
Atmospheric transport and orographic rainfall of microplastics
Microplastics are transported in the natural environment by a wide range of processes and as a consequence are found in all environments, from the highest mountains to the deepest oceans, in urban environments and polar ice caps. Read more
Employing molecular virology to investigate hepatitis E virus replication
Hepatitis E virus (HEV), is a major causative agent of acute, severe hepatitis. The infection can also be chronic, particular in immunocompromised people, and fatal in pregnant women or those with existing liver diseases. Read more
