  PhD in Direct Fibre Optic Shape Sensing for Robotics
Cranfield University School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing (SATM)
  Dr Tom Charrett, Prof R P Tatam
Application Deadline: 14 January 2019
Outline of area the project relates to. As part of a wider program of ongoing research at Cranfield into the development of novel instrumentation for manufacturing robotics, this studentship will investigate the application of Direct Fibre Optic Shape Sensing (DFOSS) in robotics.

  Characterising the mechanisms of optic flow parsing
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr P Warren, Dr R Champion
Applications accepted all year round
Humans move in their environment. As a result complex patterns of motion called optic flow arise on the retina. It is well known that the brain has regions that are sensitive to optic flow, however there is some debate about their functional role.

  The role of the parietal lobe in attention, spatial processing, and optic flow.
University of Reading School of Psychology & Clinical Language Sciences
  Dr D Field
Applications accepted all year round
Recent fMRI evidence collected in my lab suggests that the function of some parts of the parietal lobe are currently misunderstood.
