  Mapping the Spatial and Temporal Progression of Enamel Biomineralisation using Synchrotron X-ray Diffraction
Queen Mary University of London Institute of Dentistry
  Dr M Al-Jawad, Prof F Wong
Applications accepted all year round
Background. Human dental enamel formation begins in utero and for most teeth takes several years to complete. It is a complex biological, physicochemical process where mineralisation progresses heterogeneously in space and time.

  Combining neutron diffraction experiments and microstructural analyses to investigate the fracturing of pyroxenes
University of Manchester School of Earth and Environmental Sciences
  Dr S Covey-Crump
Application Deadline: 11 February 2019
The link between aqueous fluids and potential habitability means that assessing the distribution of liquid water at or near the surface of Mars throughout its history remains a strong focus of missions to Mars.

  Non—invasive instrumentation development for particle accelerators on the basis of Cherenkov diffraction radiation
Royal Holloway, University of London Department of Physics
  Dr P Karataev
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Cherenkov diffraction radiation appears when a charged particle moves in the vicinity of and parallel to a dielectric interface. The intensity is proportional to the length of the radiator.

  Imaging Life Beyond the Diffraction Limit of Light
University of Sheffield Department of Biomedical Science
  Dr J Malicki
Applications accepted all year round
Ever since its invention centuries ago, light microscopy has been hampered by the diffractive properties of light, which limit resolution to ca.

Type/Funding
  Exploring recycling and reuse of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries
University of Birmingham School of Chemistry
  Dr P Allan
Application Deadline: 13 January 2019
With an increasing number of electric vehicles being purchased in the UK, methods to recycle automotive batteries at the end of life are urgently needed.
