GREEN CDT Radiological decontamination using hydrogels
The UK faces a > 100 year, £ 140 bn challenge to decommission its historic nuclear facilities. Many of these facilities have contaminated surfaces, including both impermeable (glass, metal, paint) and permeable materials (brick, concrete) finishes. Read more
A chemical engine to produce mechanical force: towards a physio-chemical model of heart cells
Living systems are complex, and are based on the basic building blocks of genes, proteins, chemical reactions, and physical forces. Read more
Enzyme-responsive peptide hydrogel as in situ forming long-acting drug delivery implants
One of the key issues in the treatment and prevention of disease is that patients struggle to adhere to the complex dosage regimens of therapies, which often require multiple dosing at very specific times each day. Read more
GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: Microneedle integrated foetal scalp electrodes for neonatal brain monitoring
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 September 2024. Read more
From structure and dynamics to controlled gel formation of sustainable food proteins from plant seeds
Research Project. The PhD will be enrolled at the Division of Physical Chemistry at Lund University due to a change of affiliation of the supervisor Felix Roosen-Runge. Read more
Development of innovative composite scaffolds for the repair of osteochondral defects
Applications are invited for a self-funded, 3 year full-time or 6 year part-time PhD project. The PhD will be based in the School of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences and will be supervised by . Read more
Synthesis of peptide biomaterials for tissue engineering
Nanocomposite biomaterials are an emerging area of research as we seek to optimise the properties of biomaterials to enhance their suitability for tissue engineering purposes. Read more
Developing novel formulations and materials for transmucosal drug delivery
Mucosal routes of drug administration offer numerous advantages including ease of application, non-invasive nature and sometimes possibility of targeting particular organs. Read more
Engineering therapeutic immune-biomaterials for tissue engineering applications
Current regenerative medicine strategies aim to restore the function of damaged or diseased tissues with functional and site-appropriate implants. Read more
Advanced biomaterials for future-proof pharmaceutical formulations
While traditional, small molecule drugs continue to play a significant role due to their oral bioavailability, they also suffer from lower selectivity, frequently accompanied with side-effects. Read more
Functional Biopolymer-based Composite Materials
Natural biopolymers such as polysaccharides (e.g. chitin/chitosan, cellulose, starch, and alginate) and proteins are widely available, biodegradable, biocompatible, chemically versatile, and inherently functional and thus have huge potential in developing advanced functional materials. . Read more
Higher-order shell finite elements for soft smart multifunctional composites
Smart multifunctional composites (MFCs) such as electroactive polymers, magnetoactive polymers, hydrogels, photosensitive polymers and liquid-crystal elastomers etc., are increasingly being used for various applications in soft robotics, precision drug delivery, tactile sensors and shape morphing. Read more
Harnessing the crosstalk between extracellular matrix stiffness and tissue redox chemistry to modulate the fate of macrophages
We are seeking a highly motivated candidate with strong academic background in immunology, chemistry, biology or related area for a multidisciplinary PhD project focused on development of biomaterials with immune modulatory properties with potential applications in immune therapy and vaccination.
