  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.

University of Bristol Department of Physics
  Dr D Liu
Application Deadline: 28 February 2019
Critical developments in nuclear technology rely on the availability of high-temperature irradiation and mechanical damage-tolerant materials that can be synthesised at low cost, for example, graphite and MAX phases.
Details
Type/Funding
  In situ X-ray imaging of solidification and deformation mechanisms in Fe based alloys
University of Leicester Department of Engineering
  Dr M Azeen, Prof H Dong
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
