GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: Integrating biology and population health science to investigate obesity and deficient wound healing
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the GW4 BioMed2 MRC Doctoral Training Partnership which is offering up to 20 studentships for entry in October 2023. Read more
Epigenetic regulation of skin wound healing
Research Group:
Chemistry and Biosciences
Skin in the largest organ in the human body consisting of epidermis, dermis and subcutis. It also contains epithelial appendages, including hair follicles and sweat glands. Read more

Sprayed self-healing cement composites for repair
PROJECT DETAILS. Approximately 50% of repaired concrete structures fail within five years, costing the UK £5Bn/year. Read more
Investigating the therapeutic potential of microwaves in chronic wound healing
Chronic wounds are a significant societal problem, expected to increase as the population ages and co-morbidities such as obesity and diabetes become increasingly common. Read more
Molecular modelling of bio-based self-healing polymers
A fully-funded PhD position in molecular simulation in the team of Prof. Tiffany Walsh is available at Deakin University based at the Institute for Frontier Materials, Geelong, Australia, starting as soon as possible. Read more
Application of animal corneal cells for skin regeneration, tissue engineering and wound healing enhancement
Research Group:
Centre for Skin Sciences
Engineering of biological skin substitutes has progressed over the years from individual applications of skin cells, or biopolymer scaffolds, to combinations of cells and scaffolds for treatment, healing, and closure of acute and chronic skin wounds. Read more
Design and fabrication of a smart biomaterial device with artificial niches for aiding corneal healing
Corneal disease affects millions of people worldwide with higher prevalence in developing countries. Corneal transplantation and the use of membranes as cell carriers (amniotic membrane, AM) have been relatively successful. Read more
Investigation of the role of molecular regulators during skin development and wound healing
Skin morphogenesis occurs under stringent control of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions and result in a formation of the epidermis and a number of different skin appendages (including, the hair follicle, HF). Read more
Role of cell death and necroinflammation in pulpal wound healing
Injury to the dental pulp is commonly encountered in clinical practice, but how injury induce inflammation and how the dental pulp heals after injury is not known. Read more

EPSRC funded EngD 3D printing of complex dressings for the regeneration of diabetic foot ulcers
Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU) is open chronic wounds on the feet of diabetes patients that can lead to amputation if not managed correctly. Read more
Cytoskeletal dynamics and intracellular trafficking in angiogenesis
Angiogenesis is the fundamental physiological process by which new blood vessels are generated from pre-existing vasculature. Read more
Use of Fungi as a Means of Producing Concrete-Like Construction Materials
Concrete is one of the World’s most ubiquitous materials. It has achieved this through its versatility, durability and low cost. However, the manufacture of a key ingredient - Portland cement – contributes 4% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Read more
Development of micro-incubator OCT/ OCE bioreactor system to engineer a robust musculoskeletal tissue model
Achieving adequate musculoskeletal tissue healing is one of the most challenging factors in the repair of orthopaedic tissues. The problem of hard-to-soft tissue fixation is the major cause of failure of replacement grafts and leads to further musculoskeletal degeneration e.g. Read more
Robotic and Cyber-Physical Materials
Robotic or Cyber-Physical materials use embedded sensing, actuation and control to realise novel and improved performance over conventional or passive materials [1]. Read more
The role of the microbiome in diabetic foot ulcers
Research Group:
Molecular Mechanisms and Long Term Conditions
Reference. SHLS20069. Background. Recently the composition of the bacterial species that reside in specific areas – the microbiome has been implicated in many long term health conditions. Read more
