Actuator PHM exploiting multi- physics digital twin and machine learning PhD
To ensure safe and efficient operation, electric actuators should be controlled on a suitable operative environment, which includes temperature and pressure as well. Read more
GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: Causal inference tools to study vaccines using real-world data: how can we make better use of negative control outcomes?
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the GW4 BioMed2 MRC Doctoral Training Partnership which is offering up to 21 studentships for entry in September 2025. Read more
Understanding the influence of the composition and microstructure of Cr based PVD coatings on the performance of coated claddings
The Zr group is a large welcoming team of researchers that focus on tackling industrially significant issues with regards to nuclear power. Read more
Understanding and managing cultural diversity on UK construction sites
Despite stringent health and safety regulations, the construction industry continues to suffer the highest proportions of fatalities and injuries of all major UK industries. Read more
PhD studentship on the Investigation of Cardiac Safety of Illicit Nitazene Opioids
Nitazene opioids are highly potent, synthetic agents that are increasingly used illicitly as recreational drugs. There is mounting concern that increasing illicit nitazene use heralds a new phase of the opioid crisis and may lead to increasing numbers of deaths among users of these drugs. Read more
Simulation-based training for improving surgical performance and patient safety in minimally invasive surgery (MIS).
Minimally invasive surgery including laparoscopic and robotic surgery has increased annually since its introduction, especially in general surgery. Read more
Improving road safety in low- and middle- income countries
Ninety percent of the globe’s road traffic fatalities are located in Low- and Middle- Income Countries (LMICs) but the majority of research available to date addresses driver behaviour in high income countries. Read more
A Societal Index Model for the Assessment of the Safety, Operability and Resilience level of Regional Mini Energy Grid
The project is aimed at developing an open expert system for the end user and also for the developer to carry out the risk analysis involved in systems utilizing upcoming new energy technologies. Read more
Assessment of Slip Potential on Safety Flooring
Many tests exist for assessing floor surface slip resistance. These can, in some cases, produce conflicting results, particularly for certain types of surface textures. Read more
Dynamic digital scheduling for optimal outfitting of naval ships
During the manufacture of a modern naval ship, one aim is to maximise the amount of equipment, pipework, etc. installed during the initial build process. Read more
Disruptive manufacturing approach to enable safe and high energy batteries
Supervisory Team: Chris Holmes, Pier Sazio, Nuria Garcia, Andrew Hector. Project description. Ensuring the safety of lithium batteries is a top priority in battery development. Read more
Intelligent and Efficient Testing and Verification of Deep Neural Networks
About the Project. Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have demonstrated human-level capabilities in several challenging machine learning tasks including image classification, natural language processing and speech recognition. Read more
Developing and testing indicators to enhance the quality and safety of care in professional community pharmacy services
The increasing demand for healthcare services, combined with a declining number of general practitioners (GPs), has led to heightened workload pressures on general practices. Read more
Enhancing the performance, condition, safety and reliability of offshore wind energy infrastructure systems using optimal inspections and structural health monitoring
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
Modification of antibiotics to improve efficacy / safety
With increasing concern over antibiotic resistance, antibacterial agents such as chloramphenicol and colistin, which have frequently been passed over in the past because of concerns over toxicity, are now becoming more important to tackle resistant bacterial strains. . Read more
