Study of the human-vehicle interactions by a high-end dynamic driving simulator
Context of the research activity. Motivations and objectives of the research in this field. Vehicle electrification and autonomous driving require extensive testing for human-vehicle interfaces and human acceptance. Read more
ENCODE: A platform for modelling users’ bEhaviour iN COnnected DEvices [Self-Funded Students Only]
Description. Smartphones are ubiquitous amongst daily life, where the user is connected to a number of apps and services on-the-go from communication to health monitoring to entertainment. Read more
Deep Learning and Behaviour Science for Secure Networked Autonomous Systems PhD
This is a funded PhD studentship open to all applicants with a fixed fee-stipend cap. The PhD studentship is a full-time 3-year position to support the strategic EPSRC grant – trustworthy autonomous systems. Read more
Advanced Behaviour and Face analytics in XR
Improvements in computer vision, and deep learning advancements, along with the introduction of smart devices and powerful computers, have stimulated research interest in the field of real-time scene analysis. Read more
SELF-FUNDING MSc BY RESEARCH PROJECT: What coordination mechanisms are used by neural networks to generate fundamental components of flexible behaviour?
The basal ganglia play a critical role in shaping behaviour. Obsessive compulsive disorder is an extreme example of how imbalanced cortico-basal ganglia network activity can lead to inflexible behaviour. Read more
Heterogeneity in the development of antisocial behaviour
Antisocial behaviour is a very wide-ranging term including fighting, stealing, and temper tantrums among many other things. It may not make sense to consider these behaviours as a single construct but to identify meaningful subsets that may have different causes, outcomes and respond well to different treatments.

Adaptive socio-context awareness mechanism for human-robot interaction [Self-Funded Students Only]
Research Group:
Complex Systems
Project Highlights. Follow a user-centred design approach to understand human-robot interactions in everyday contexts, identifying social cues affecting social robot engagement. Read more
Neurosciences
The primary objective of the Neuroscience doctoral degree programme is to prepare independent scientific and academic staff for the disciplines of General Neuroscience, Neurology, and Psychiatry. Read more
Predicting urban evolution by means of human cognitive characteristics
With rapid urbanisation around the globe, understanding of emergence mechanisms involved in both human behaviour and urban development is important. Read more
Development of a collaborative robot – human-robot collaboration
Robots work effectively in factories. For example, in car factories, huge robotic arms pick up car parts and join them to the skeleton of the car, working at less than millimetre and millisecond precision. Read more
Cognitive neuroscience of atypical attention in autism and psychosis
The perceptual saliency of distracting non-target information presents a major challenge for attention selection processes, which are required to bias selection away from distracting, non-target items. Read more
PhD Psychology
Particular areas of interest include Cyberpsychology, Interpersonal Behaviour, Health and Relationships, Psychology of Creativity and Performance Expertise, and Educational Development. Read more
How do prenatal steroids elevate autism likelihood?
The causes of autism remain unknown. Some literature has showed a link between higher levels of steroid hormones such as testosterone in the womb and autism in children, particularly males. Read more
Understanding perception and representation of the human body structure
Applications are invited for a self-funded PhD project to investigate perception and/or mental representation of the human body structure. Read more
