Application of virtual-reality game to assess cognitive deterioration in older people with neurocognitive disorders (ref: SF24/HLS/SWECW/LAI)
The burden of neurocognitive disorders (NCDs, formerly, ‘dementia’) has become a worldwide public health, medical and social concern. Read more
The impact of nutritional scavenging on host-pathogen interactions, antifungal efficacy and emergence of antifungal resistance
Infections caused by Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) cause more deaths globally than any other fungal disease. Over 20 million are affected annually with four million having life threatening invasive and chronic infections with high morbidity and mortality up to 90%. Read more
Developing a novel drug screening platform for schistosomes using the free-living flatworm Schmidtea mediterranea
Schistosoma mansoni is one of three major schistosome species that infect over 240 million people across 70 developing countries, with an additional 0.6 billion at risk of infection. Read more
Computational Screening of Supercapacitors
In order to be self-sufficient with relatively constant energy output, renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, require that energy be stored during periods of high energy production so that it can be available during periods of low or zero energy production. Read more
Cancer: Complex 3D modelling of the tumour microenvironment for immunotherapy combination screening
Cancer immunotherapy holds significant promise for the treatment of a range of cancers. Read more
UTS HDR Scholarship (Development of biomechanical biopsy imaging for tumour tissue screening)
Label-free light microscopy with mechanical specificity is at the frontier of science and technology, promissing to revolutionise biomedical diagnostics and fundamental research. Read more
A systematic screening tool for nanocarrier design and efficient drug delivery against biological barriers.
Encapsulation of APIs in a liposome can dramatically alter the distribution by controlling the release to normal tissue while facilitating the accumulation to the site of inflammation. Read more
Construction of Predictive Models for Pre-screening of Sustainable Aviation Fuels
Utilisation of novel Sustainable Aviation Fuels, as a blend or standalone replacement of petroleum-based fuels, in aviation sector is subject to a challenging, and stringent multi-stage approval process, requiring tests that exceed millions of pounds in tests, tens of thousands of liters of fuel, years of testing, and sustained commitment of resources for fuel producers.

mRNA display based development of peptidic chemical tools to modulate SUMOylation.
SUMOylation is an important, highly dynamic post-translational modification which involves the conjugation of a small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) to a lysine residue of a protein [1]. Read more
Computer Aided Discovery of Porous Materials for the Purification of Fullerene Adducts
Fullerenes and their adducts find extensive applications, particularly as electroactive materials in solar cells, and continue to emerge in new medical uses. Read more
Enabling CO2 Capture and Storage Using AI
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is one of the viable solutions that can effectively reduce CO. 2. emissions from hard to decarbonise industries (e.g., steel, cement, power generation). Read more
