Law at Queen's: Postgraduate Research Opportunities
We have over 100 years of achievement in both education and research, and we offer PhD supervision across the legal field, supporting a range of approaches--from the doctrinal to the sociolegal, comparative, criminological and critical. Read more
PhD Education
You'll be part of a dynamic doctoral research environment and will study alongside students from over 25 different countries; we supervise students undertaking research in key educational areas including. Read more
MICROFLUIDIC TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF NANOMEDICINES
Progress in drug design has led to the development of new molecules. However, the limited ability to selectively deliver these molecules at well-defined dosing regimens remains a significant challenge. Read more
PhD Management
The management group is an energetic and enterprising research cluster that continuously strives for excellence in both its teaching and its scholarship. Read more
Strategies and key technologies to produce amorphous solid dispersions
Poor drug solubility presents a major challenge in drug product development of oral solid dosage (OSD) forms. However, many new development compounds exhibit poor solubility and only a few of them reach market approval. Read more
3D-Printing of implantable devices for the treatment of chronic conditions
Non-adherence to treatment costs the NHS more than £500M each year. Adherence is especially important when treating patients with chronic conditions that require lifetime pharmacological treatment, such as schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, HIV and Alzheimer’s disease. Read more
PhD Arts Management and Cultural Policy
You will be part of a growing doctoral research environment and will study alongside students from Northern Ireland and abroad. We supervise students undertaking research in. Read more
Multifunctional Biomaterials to Combat Infection and Modulate Inflammation
Implantable medical devices are commonplace in modern medicine (e.g. joint replacements, stents, artificial heart valves, etc.), and are of ever increasing interest in the field of regenerative medicine. Read more
Polymer-engineering nanocages for protein delivery
Protein therapeutics are a fast-acting and potent class of medicine with remarkable success in the treatment of several relevant disorders. Read more
Countering the proteinase-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) pro-tumour phenotype using a novel nanotherapeutic approach
Proteinase-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) expressed on a number of cell types, and is activated by serine proteases such as thrombin, plasmin and activated protein C. Read more
Combining protein modelling and synthetic biology to alter and expand of host range of phages
Phage therapy relies on the use of bacterial viruses for treatment of infectious diseases. Bacteriophages are natural predators of bacteria, but their specificity varies significantly depending on the host species. Read more
Laser Driven Neutron Sources at High Repetition Rate
Despite the high demand for neutron sources in a wide range of applications from material science to health-care [1, 2], the number of accessible neutron sources has decreased in the last years due to the phasing out of nuclear research reactors. Read more
3D & 4D PRINTING IN CANCER MANAGEMENT
According to WHO, cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide, with nearly 1 in 6 deaths been due to cancer. The principal modes of cancer management are surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and pharmaceutical agents. Read more
High throughput screening models for intracellular delivery of antimicrobial nanotherapeutics
Fungal and bacterial infections contribute to over 7 million deaths yearly, affecting over 300 million people globally (GAFFI). Read more
Investigating the clinical and molecular significance of the microbiome in breast cancer
Breast Cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in the UK, accounting for 15% of new cancer cases. There is a significant unmet clinical need to understand why some cancers do not respond to treatment and what drives metastasis. Read more
