Self funded BMS Project: Understanding the population dynamics of haematopoietic stem cells during gene therapy for sickle cell disease
Applications accepted for PhD Only. Background. This project builds on the recent discovery that whole genome sequencing approaches in blood stem and progenitor cells can be used to estimate the number of actively contributing blood stem cells in humans (Lee-Six et al., Nature 2018). Read more
Developing and applying new approaches to understand the dynamics of populations and communities
We invite applications for a PhD in population ecology and demographic modelling. Our research tackles problems at both the pure and applied ends of the spectrum. Read more

Rice farming and rodent-borne zoonoses
Land-use changes due to intensified agricultural practices are a concern in the Philippines (Dirzo et al, 2014). The replacement of forests by mixed agroecosystems and high-value crops has led to biodiversity loss and increased contact of humans with wild animal populations. Read more
Project at Cranfield University: Optimizing UK landscapes for agroecosystem resilience
Project description. Biodiversity loss is an existential threat to global food security, and agriculture plays a pivotal role in the protection of species for agroecosystem resilience. Read more
Know your enemy: a mathematical framework for competition in bacterial communities
Bacteria are found in almost every facet of the natural and manmade worlds. Nearly all bacteria live in biofilms. Biofilms are social communities of microbial cells that underpin diverse processes including sewage bioremediation, plant growth promotion and plant protection, chronic infections and industrial biofouling.

Next Generation High-Speed Atomic Force Microscopy in the Wolfson Imaging Facility
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
To better understand diseases and to develop new treatment options, we need to understand very fast biological processes occurring at single molecule level. Read more
Tracking and Modelling of Cell Dynamics with Application to Swarm Robots
Understanding the dynamics of cell behaviour has the potential to lead to identifying the mechanisms of diseases such as cancer and of immune function. Read more
Identification of cis- and trans-acting genetic modifiers of somatic expansion as novel therapeutic targets in the repeat expansion disorders
At least 40 human disorders, including Huntington disease and myotonic dystrophy, are caused by the expansion of a simple sequence repeat [1]. Read more
Modelling the effect of quorum sensing in fluid flow on biofilm function
Research Group:
Ecology and Evolution
We need to understand microbial communities, whether in the context of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) or their key role in global carbon cycling. Read more
Neuronal coupling across spatiotemporal scales and dimensions of cortical population activity
The human cortex is the most complex known system. It is responsible for a vast range of sensorimotor, decision making, and other cognitive abilities of humans and other mammals. Read more
Using optimal control approaches to understand resistance in the management of Septoria
Ecological decision problems, such as those encountered in agriculture, often require managing conflicts between short‐term costs and long‐term benefits. Read more
