Exploring the Molecular Mechanism of Novel Mitochondrial Neurotoxins identified through a Machine Learning Approach
Mitochondrial inhibition is an important ‘OFF-target’ mechanism of drug-induced toxicity in the clinic, contributing to drug attrition in clinical trials and drug withdrawal following approval because of severe adverse events 1. Read more
Exploring The Utility of Transcriptomics Data in Toxicology
One of the challenges for the future of agriculture is to sustainable increase food production, using only the same or ideally less land area, to provide the quality and quantity required to meet the needs of an increasingly affluent & growing human population and simultaneously mitigating climate change and protecting or regenerating biodiversity. Read more
Understanding the Impacts of Inhaled Particulate Matter on Neurological Health
The biological processes underlying the development of dementia and other neurodegenerative disorders are complex and not fully understood, but accumulating evidence has demonstrated that exposure to air pollution, especially airborne particles, is a potentially important environmental risk factor. Read more
Quantitative parameter free methods for toxicokinetics
An exciting four year interdisciplinary project at the forefront of developing mathematical modelling methodologies for informing toxicology studies in collaboration with industry!. Read more
PhD opportunities in Pollution Research and Policy
Help shape new policies and regulatory priorities for pollution control and protect human health and the environment from harmful chemical pollution. Read more
Bridging the gap between environment and health – exposure assessment of potentially harmful agents in soil
Our current understanding of soil exposure in the UK population is extremely limited. The current risk assessment paradigm makes large assumptions based on very uncertain data to estimate direct exposures via soil ingestion or dust inhalation. Read more
3D Printing in the Preclinical space vs. Late Development
3D Printing (3DP) provides many advantages for preclinical drug product development as a wide dose range can easily be manufactured/printed, multiple prototypes can be manufactured quickly, adjusting release profiles and drug product geometries. Read more

Sports Science: Fully Funded PhD Scholarship: The effect of mineral rich Algae with and without plant-based protein supplementation on endurance exercise performance
Funding providers: Swansea University's Faculty of Science and Engineering and Marigot Ltd. Subject areas: Nutrition, Exercise Physiology, Thermal Physiology. Read more
Understanding sensitisation by platinum group metal compounds
Project Summary. Why are some PGM complexes respiratory and dermal sensitisers when others are not? Early screening work proposed that it was Pt halides that were allergenic, but a number of non-halide, non-Pt compounds have since also proved sensitising. Read more
School of Medicine, Dentistry & Nursing
The School of Medicine, Dentistry & Nursing is renowned for pioneering teaching methods and superb facilities for postgraduate study. Read more
An Organ on a Chip Platform for Biomedical Applications
Organ on a chip devices are an emerging technology which employ microfluidics to grow 3D tissues, mimicking the physiological conditions found in vivo. Read more
Self Funded PhD project: Biological Evaluation of Ruthenium (II) complexes Targeted against Breast Cancers (BRUT BC)
MCF-7 cells are primary tumour invasive breast ductal carcinoma which have both oestrogen and progesterone receptors. Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) inhibits the growth of MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Read more
self - funded PhD Project: Synthesis of Targeted Ruthenium (II) therapeutics against Breast Cancers (STRUT BC)
TU Dublin have developed synthetic protocols for the synthesis and characterisation of a library of compounds developed that take a systematic approach… Read more
Novel strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of snakebites
Snakebite envenomation (SBE), a high priority neglected tropical disease affects several million people worldwide resulting in as many as 150,000 deaths and around 500,000 permanent disabilities every year. Read more
