How do plants, mycorrhizal fungi and soil microbes interact to promote carbon and nutrient cycling?
Applications are invited for a fully funded, 42 month PhD studentship commencing in October 2022 at the University of Aberdeen, as part of The newly established. Read more
Parameters Affecting the Stiffness and Ductility of Reinforced Concrete joints under Cycling Loading
The School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering has seen 100% of its research impact rated as ‘world leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, underlining the wide-ranging positive impacts that our research has on the world (REF, 2021). Read more
Global diversity and ecosystem functions of plant-microbe symbioses
Research Group:
CENTA - Central England NERC Training Alliance
Project Highlights. We have discovered a previously unknown and abundant plant- mycorrhizal symbiosis with global distribution. Read more
Non-invasive cardiac metabolism assessment using ultra-high field (7T) MR Spectroscopy
My group at the Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research (OCMR) is focused on development of new methods for cardiac metabolism assessment using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Read more
Modelling the effect of quorum sensing in fluid flow on biofilm function
Research Group:
Ecology and Evolution
We need to understand microbial communities, whether in the context of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) or their key role in global carbon cycling. Read more
Advanced Lithium–sulfur Batteries as a Beyond Lithium-ion Energy Storage Technology
The Department of Chemical Sciences and Bernal Institute at the University of Limerick are pleased to invite applications for a four-year PhD studentship, fully funded by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) and the Irish Research Council (IRC) as part of an SFI-IRC Pathway Programme award. Read more
Project at Cranfield University: Optimizing UK landscapes for agroecosystem resilience
Project description. Biodiversity loss is an existential threat to global food security, and agriculture plays a pivotal role in the protection of species for agroecosystem resilience. Read more
Forests in a changing environment: A study of nitrogen cycle feedbacks
Research Group:
CENTA - Central England NERC Training Alliance
Project Highlights. Novel research to describe forest nitrogen cycle dynamics in response to global change. Access to one of the most extensively characterised ancient woodlands in the UK, facilitating opportunities for wider collaboration in forest ecology research. Read more
Process modelling and manufacture of ceramic coatings by particulate aerosol deposition
The particulate aerosol deposition (PAD) method is a novel coating process, which has the potential to combine dissimilar ceramic, metallic and polymeric materials in multilayer or composite coating architectures. Read more
Centre for Doctoral Training PhDs in Plant Sciences
The School of Biological Sciences at the University of Aberdeen has a world-leading reputation for pure and applied research across the biological sciences, with a broad cross-cutting theme of understanding the fundamental biological consequences of global environmental change. Read more
Ecosystem functioning: a Southern and Northern Hemisphere freshwater comparison
Project Background. Freshwater ecosystems provide key ecosystem services but are among the most threatened globally due to pollution, eutrophication, overexploitation, land-use change and invasive species (Dudgeon et al. Read more
Structural Health Monitoring of Li-ion batteries using ultrasonics techniques
Lithium-ion batteries are widely used as the power supply for transportation power sources. However, they are prone to experience gradual degradation (capacity-fade and resistance-increase) or catastrophic failures. Read more
Thermal Management and Degradation Pathways of Sustainable Batteries
This research will focus on understanding the link between battery degradation and methods of battery thermal management, especially with respect to cells of different sizes. Read more
PhD in Geographical and Earth Sciences – The hydroecology of glacial demise
This project will focus on modelling the ecological impact of glacial melt. Climate warming is melting glaciers at unprecedented rates, however the ecological consequences of this are largely unknown. Read more
PhD in Lithium-Ion Battery Degradation and Performance Prediction in 2nd-Life Applications
This project represents a unique opportunity to undertake a fully funded PhD studentship, sponsored by BP (subject to contract) in the broad area of electric vehicle (EV) battery sustainability and circular economy. Read more
