Social and climatic influences on animal habitat use and movement patterns

All animals constantly make spatial decisions relating to the different areas in which they live, but we know relatively little about how social and climatic factors influence habitat choices and movement patterns. Read more

Insect movement and migration behaviour and implications for ecosystem function

Insects play many critical roles in global ecosystems. However, there is still relatively little known about their movement and migration behaviour and how this may influence a species’ ability to respond to landscape change. Read more

Re-engineering Golgi dynamics in plants – investigating the role of myosin receptors

The growing global population requires the development of novel strategies to sustainably increase food production. Organelle movement is dynamic and linked to changes in cell size, plant biomass and in response to factors which affect food production such as pathogens (Perico and Sparkes, New Phytol. Read more

Understanding eye-hand coordination in object interception - a computational modelling approach

This PhD project with Dr Yeo will focus on understanding how we perform interception. Interceptive movements--such as catching a gently thrown ball, quickly grabbing a tilting cup to avoid spilling or even just handshaking someone--feel like trivial everyday tasks for us that seemingly look too simple to study.

Influence of listener movement on tonality and spatial quality in adaptive immersive surround sound systems

Whilst there is a significant body of work that focuses on the spatial quality and tonality of immersive surround sound systems for a sweet spot position, these qualities under a dynamic listening scenario (i.e. Read more

Moving softly: how the interplay of neuronal circuits and biomechanics enables complex movement in soft-bodied animals

Soft bodied animals can radically change their body shape, squeeze through cracks, then crawl, roll, tunnel, or even jump. Controlling soft bodies is difficult because they have highly non-linear physical properties and virtually unlimited degrees of freedom. Read more

Funded PhD Studentship: Ocean deoxygenation effects on pelagic shark physiological ecology

The Marine Biological Association (MBA) invites applications for a PhD Studentship working within the . OCEAN DEOXYFISH.  project (Ocean deoxygenation effects on threatened top predators. Read more

Moving together in time: the effects of coordinated movements on physical performance, social cognition and overall wellbeing

Our Social Cognition and Movement Rehabilitation Lab (SCMR) investigates various topics on the role of non˗verbal behaviours in everyday conversations, social-cognitive effects of interpersonal synchrony (two or more individuals moving together in time) and explores movement interventions (e.g. Read more
