  DTC BIO 13 - Can diet influence natural UV protection?
Swansea University Department of Biosciences
  Dr C Llewellyn
Applications accepted all year round
Over the past two decades the zebrafish (Danio rerio) has become an important human model in the fields of genetics, toxicology and developmental biology to study a range of human diseases.

  DTC BIO 14 - Photosynthetic regulation in the red algae Porphyridium cruentum.
Swansea University Department of Biosciences
  Dr C Llewellyn
Applications accepted all year round
Algae live in dynamic environment and have the capacity to regulate photosynthesis and photoregulation accordingly. Red algae are of particular interest because in addition to photosystems I and II they contain phycobilisomes.

  DTC BIO 16 - Understanding the effect of benthic bioturbation on chemical dynamics in lakes using an integrated biology, physics and modelling approach
Swansea University Department of Biosciences
  Prof K W Tang
Applications accepted all year round
Successful invasion by Chaoborus larvae (phantom midge) represents an ecological tipping point in eutrophic lakes where bioturbation of Chaoborus sustains internal nutrient loading, water deoxygenation and release of sediment methane.

  DTC BIO 17 - The photosynthetic flatworm Symsagittifera roscoffensis– from autecology to biotechnology
Swansea University Department of Biosciences
  Prof K W Tang
Applications accepted all year round
The intertidal acoel flatworm Symsagittifera roscoffensis contains the symbiotic microalga Tetraselmis sp., which through photosynthesis can contribute as a significant (sole) energy supplier for the host.

  DTC BIO 3 - Reptile Radiations: Investigating the Diversification Dynamics of a Diverse Animal Group
Swansea University Department of Biosciences
  Dr K Arbuckle
Applications accepted all year round
Reptiles represent a large animal group with over 10,000 species and a wide diversity of biological traits, including examples of model systems for evolutionary radiation and convergence (anole lizards), body size (monitor lizards), body shape (limblessness), and a range of other biologically interesting attributes.

  DTC BIO 4 - Macroevolution of niche breadth: what determines direction of trends towards specialism or generalism?
Swansea University Department of Biosciences
  Dr K Arbuckle
Applications accepted all year round
Animals vary greatly in the diversity of ecological resources (such as food) they exploit, from specialists feeding on a single prey species to generalists eating almost anything they can overpower and ingest.

Type/Funding
  DTC CS 1 - Verification of Bitcoins and other Cryptocurrencies.
Swansea University Department of Computer Science
  Dr A G Setzer
Applications accepted all year round
This project would connect well with research by Pedro Helles in the School of Law on smart contracts and cryptocurrencies.

Type/Funding
  DTC CS 10 - Combinatorics of Satisfiability - developing new synergies with mathematics, combinatorics, complexity theory and algorithmics
Swansea University Department of Computer Science
  Dr O Kullmann
Applications accepted all year round
Solving boolean systems of equations (the SAT problem) and combinatorics have deep connections, and a theory of SAT is emerging. This PhD will be about strengthening these connections, developing new synergies with mathematics, combinatorics, complexity theory and algorithmics.

  DTC CS 12 - AI-assisted big astrophysics data analysis
Swansea University Department of Computer Science
  Dr A Paiement
Applications accepted all year round
This project aims at leveraging and further developing the state-of-the-art in computer vision and machine learning to assist in the analysis of the large quantity of observational data gathered in astrophysics research.
Details
Type/Funding
  DTC CS 13 -Fast DNA alignment algorithms for mainstream DNA analysis
Swansea University Department of Computer Science
  Dr B Mora
Applications accepted all year round
Alignment of DNA sequences has had a profound impact on health science – e.g. cancer genome sequencing for targeted therapy or identification of genetic disorders – but is still unfortunately very costly due to the huge amount of processing power needed.
