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
Effects of forest diversity on aquatic-terrestrial linkages and processes
Tree species, functional and genetic diversity is known to mediate ecosystem processes and functioning of the forest ecosystems. However, natural ecosystems are connected to each other through the flow of species, energy and elements. 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

The diversity challenge for leading companies: application of AI technologies in recruitment and selection
This interdisciplinary PhD project addresses the diversity challenge for leading companies by critically questioning the use of AI in processes of recruitment and selection. Read more
Building functional understanding of the diversity and roles of leukocytes and other immune cells in Atlantic salmon
Disease remains a key constraint to the sustainability of Atlantic salmon aquaculture in the UK and globally. Read more
Amplifying marginalised voices in the Computing Curriculum: Investigating the diversity of subject resources using staff and students as change agents to provide an effective and inclusive learning experience (Advert Reference: SF22/EE/CIS/CASSELDEN)
Decolonising higher education and enabling marginalised voices to be better heard is vital for ensuring an inclusive and equal learning experience for all students in the UK. Read more
Project at Queen's University Belfast: Environmental DNA from Fasciola parasites as a novel biomarker to improve agriculture in the UK
Fasciola hepatica, usually termed "the temperate liver fluke", is found worldwide and causes disease known as fasciolosis. This infection caused by helminth parasites, primarily impacts on ruminant production, including within the UK and many other European countries. Read more
Evidence-based healthcare in the prevention of oral mucositis
Oral mucositis is characterised by painful ulcers of the mouth and is a side effect of some cancer treatments. Read more
Development and Evolution of Shapes: Investigating the genetic pathways governing the leaf shape in Arabidopsis
The shapes and sizes of organisms and organs are scrupulously conserved within a species. What regulates the shapes and sizes of organisms and their lateral organs are intriguing and fundamental questions in Biology. Read more
Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins in the DNA damage response and cancer
A self-funded PhD studentship is available in the laboratories of Christine Schmidt, Stefan Meyer and Anthony Whetton. Read more
Tackling antibiotic seeking in behaviour in veterinary and dental practices
Antimicrobial resistance is a global health and patient safety emergency driven by the unnecessary use of antimicrobial drugs. Dentistry is responsible for around 10% of antibiotics globally, with up to 80% unnecessary of inappropriate use. Read more
In situ HDX-MS of membrane protein-ligand interactions
The project aims to develop an HDX-MS workflow to profile ligand-membrane protein interactions. The identification of hits with high selectivity constitutes an important landmark for the design and development of novel therapeutics. Read more
Risk of Serious Infection associated with Interleukin 17 and 23 Inhibitors Compared with Other Biologics in People with Psoriasis
Biologic therapies are immune-modulators that are highly effective for the treatment of severe psoriasis. The licensed classes of biologics include two older classes - tumour necrosis factor(TNF) and interleukin(IL)-12/23 inhibitors; and two newer classes - IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors. Read more
(NIHR) Mental Health Outcomes and Utilization of Mental Health Care services in Older Adults in Primary Care
Health services, and particularly GPs, face a major challenge in how best to provide high quality and appropriate care to older individuals. Read more
