  Nanoparticle-containing antimicrobial coatings, validation in laboratory tissue model of orthopaedic prosthesis
Sheffield Hallam University Biomolecular Sciences Research Centre
  Dr T Nichol, Prof T J Smith, Prof C Le Maitre
Application Deadline: 12 April 2019
Hypothesis. An antimicrobial sol-gel coating containing nanoparticles can be developed for prosthetic devices, and shown to be effective in a novel 3D tissue culture model of orthopaedic infections.

  Analysis and Treatment of Orthopaedic Pin Site Infections
Royal Holloway, University of London School of Biological Sciences
  Dr J McEvoy
Applications accepted all year round
Pin site infections are a major complication of external fixation of fractures, and bacterial biofilms are known to form on the pin surface.1 This project, in collaboration with Dr Shobana Dissanayeke (RHUL) and St Peter’s Hospital, Chertsey, will investigate bacterial biofilms that have been obtained from percutaneous pins used in orthopaedic fixation frames.

  Could anti-inflammatory treatment at ACL reconstruction improve biological, functional and clinical outcomes?
Cardiff University Cardiff School of Biosciences
  Dr D Mason, Prof C A Holt
Application Deadline: 1 May 2019
This project will test the hypothesis that inflammation after ACL reconstruction surgery is detectable in the joint fluids and blood, and reduces joint function and surgical outcomes; and that anti-inflammatory medication reduces inflammation and improves joint function and surgical outcomes.

  PhD in "Biomechanics and biomedical engineering in reconstructive foot & ankle surgery”
Cranfield University Cranfield Defence and Security (CDS), Shrivenham Campus
  Dr P Zioupos, Dr S Junaid
Applications accepted all year round
Applications are invited for a three year EPSRC Doctoral training Partnership Postgraduate studentship, supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) to be undertaken within the Biomedical Engineering Research Unit at Aston University and the Forensics Biomechanics Laboratory in Cranfield University.

  Deformation avalanches in small-scaled components and how to prevent them
Loughborough University Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering
  Dr A Roy
Applications accepted all year round
The prediction of plastic deformation of metals has been an important research topic for decades, which primarily reduces to the question of properly understanding the motions of dislocations as the major cause of plastic flows in metals.

  Magnesium alloy implants: corrosion effects on its mechanical performance
Loughborough University Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering
  Dr Y Liu
Application Deadline: 1 February 2020
Resorbable metals, including magnesium- and iron-based metal alloy, were investigated intensively as biomaterials for production of orthopaedic implant and stents.

Type/Funding
  Novel Nanohybrid Coatings for Controlling the Degradation Rate of Bioresorbable Medical Devices
Queen’s University Belfast School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering
  Dr D Sun, Dr F Buchanan
Applications accepted all year round
Bioresorbable implants offer significant advantages over permanent implants for both cardiovascular and orthopaedic applications and offer the potential for restoration of normal tissue function.

  Next-generation of Intelligent Healthcare Device Controllers
University of Bath Centre for Accountable, Responsible and Transparent AI
  Dr I Georgilas
Application Deadline: 1 April 2019
Hundreds of thousands of people face significant challenges as a result of disease or injury. Patients can improve their independence and quality of life through specialised support but the number of healthcare professionals is inadequate to provide the required level of care.
