[School of Natural Sciences PhD Scholarships] Tontines: diverse cohorts and automated adjustments

The world faces an ongoing retirement crisis. Governments and insurance companies seek retirement products that cope with rising life expectancy and uncertain financial markets. Read more
 Supervisor: Dr T Bernhardt
 Year round applications  PhD Research Project  Competition Funded PhD Project (Students Worldwide)
More details

[School of Natural Sciences PhD Scholarships] Dynamic, individualised prediction of the kidney–heart cascade: multistate joint models for irregular primary care and hospital data

Kidney disease and heart disease feed each other. Kidney function declines, cardiovascular risk rises, and a cardiovascular event or its treatment damages the kidneys further. Read more
 Supervisor: Dr M Bhattacharjee

The development of young children’s understanding of multi-digit numbers (Ref: LN/JB-SF1/2026)

Once children have become proficient in using small numbers, they are faced with new challenges as soon as numbers get bigger. One of these challenges concerns the place-value structure of multi-digit numbers. Read more

Nonlinear systems of PDE and vectorial Calculus of Variations in L∞ (L-infinity)

The calculus of variations is, roughly speaking, the mathematical theory of how to minimise or maximise magnitudes. Variational problems from science typically require minimisation of an average magnitude over a space-time region depending on unknown quantities. Read more
