Developing anti-cancer drugs: Inhibiting Mortalin function to prevent cancer cell proliferation

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

The Development of Implantable Anti-tumour Devices for Enhanced Efficacy of Repurposed Drugs Using Advanced Manufacturing

Drug repurposing or repositioning, which investigates new indications for approved drugs, has always been a core approach in drug development, with approximately 30-40% of new drugs and biologics approved by the US FDA between 2007 and 2009 being repurposed or repositioned products (DOI. Read more

Broadening the spectrum of antibacterial drugs to tackle multi-drug resistant Gram-negative pathogens

  Research Group: Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology
Antibiotics make possible the treatment and cure of life-threatening bacterial infections and have added over a decade to average human lifespan. Read more

Therapeutic drug monitoring using silicon photonics circuits

Closing date. 31st December 2025. In this project you will be working on the design and fabrication of silicon photonics circuits that operate in the mid-infrared wavelength region where the drugs have distinct absorption fingerprints. Read more

LITAC Scholarship - Piezoelectric hydrogel for on-demand release of anticancer drugs for the treatment of bone cancer
