Targeting the MAPK scaffold protein KSR1 for the treatment of prostate cancer
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Prostate cancer is one of the leading causes of male cancer deaths. It arises when individual cells escape their normal growth control mechanisms and proliferate in an uncontrolled fashion. Read more
New calcium phosphate bone cements for potential biomaterial applications: bone repair and/or tissue engineering scaffold fabrication
Calcium phosphates bone cements are widely used for bone-replacement materials due to their chemical similarity to natural bone but also their ability to… Read more
Developing Biomimetic Fibrous Scaffolds Using Machine Learning for Enhanced 3D Cell Culture
Requirements. The candidate should have a first class or upper second class honours degree, or a master’s degree (or equivalent qualification), in engineering. Read more
Microstructural evolution and its relationship to properties of spray formed high performance aluminum alloys during thermomechanical process
The advanced spray forming is a type of fast solidification technology, resulting in uniform microstructure of the materials, which has some difference from the traditional melting solidification process. Read more
Study on Treatment of onychomycosis with soluble microneedles loaded with Terbinafine nanogels
Supervisors. Principal supervisor. Professor/Dr Jie Sun (XJTLU). Co-supervisor. Professor/Dr Yongyou Li...(JITRI). Co-supervisor. Read more

Probing enzyme reaction cascades in antibiotic biosynthesis at atomic resolution by NMR
Polyketide biosynthetic pathways generate vast numbers of diverse compounds that represent one of the largest collections of chemical structures with biological… Read more
3D printing of osteogenic and cortical-bone-strong scaffolds with biomaterials and human blood for personalized bone tissue engineering
Biomaterial scaffolds are used in bone tissue engineering for promoting new bone regeneration and stabilising the facture bone. An ideal biomaterial scaffold for healing load-bearing large bone defects should have cortical bone matching mechanical properties and osteogenic properties for promoting new bone regeneration.

Investigating the mechanisms of airway wall remodelling in fungal sensitised asthma
Respiratory diseases such as asthma are a major global cause of morbidity and mortality. For instance, according to European Union estimates, asthma and COPD alone cost the economy approximately 40 billion Euros and responsible for around 200,000 deaths annually. Read more
Design and Synthesis of novel analogues of Hipposudoric Acid for therapeutic use
Research into novel antimicrobial agents has never been more pressing with the ever-increasing resistance towards traditional medications. Read more
Lasers and Light Source guided Osteogenesis and Angiogenesis for Tissue Engineering
Research Group:
School of Chemical and Process Engineering
The project will investigate the growth of osteoblast and endothelial cells in in vitro model on a given bone scaffold and investigate the light-induced cell induction and conduction for osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Sticky but not sweet: deciphering how Streptococcus bacteria drive clot formation and heart disease
Heart disease is the leading cause of mortality in the developed world. Viridans group Streptococcus bacteria (VGS) are a major cause of infective endocarditis (IE), a severe form of heart disease characterised by clot formation on heart valves[1,2]. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Role of SAFB proteins in the regulation of miRNA function and aetiology of Huntington's disease
RNA binding proteins (RBP) play a central role in cellular metabolism by orchestrating the complex interactions of coding, non-coding, structural and regulatory RNA species. Read more
Modular design and construction of de novo protein nanowires and light harvesting arrays
Electron and captured energy flow within proteins is essential to life; these phenomena underpin cellular respiration and photosynthesis, both of which are dependent on complex protein machinery that support chains of redox active cofactors or chromophores. Read more
Polymeric Hydrogels for Regenerative Medicine Applications
Regenerative medicine aims to repair injured or diseased tissues using a multidisciplinary approach to stimulate natural repair mechanisms or promote healing through the transplantation of cells, often the patient’s own stem cells. Read more
