Nanotechnologies for cancer: developing new polymer-drug conjugates for the treatment of a range of cancers
Polymer anticancer-drug conjugates are drug delivery systems in which a low molecular weight anticancer agent is covalently conjugated to a water-soluble polymeric carrier. Read more
PhD studentship in Environmental Engineering: City-scale strategies for urban drainage to regulate quantity and quality of flow
Overview. Urban drainage systems have never been under so much pressure, with intense rainfall events, urbanisation and populations all increasing. Read more
Aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition (AACVD) of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides for aqueous pollutant degradation
The treatment of polluted water is becoming increasingly urgent as concerns about water quality and water scarcity become more and more prevalent1. Read more
How is climate change driving the re-emergence and evolution of anthrax
Bacillus anthracis is the spore-forming bacteria which causes Anthrax. It persists in the environment as inert spores which are ingested/inhaled by susceptible grazing animals. Read more
GREENCDT Sequestration of metals from legacy ponds using artificial corals
In the 1970’s work was stated to “grow” artificial corals in order to remediate damage to natural systems. The method was to use an electrochemical process to deposit a hard ceramic material from the metals and anions present in sea water. Read more

Wastewater monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 and other microbial pathogens
As SARS-CoV-2 is shed in high levels in faeces, wastewater testing has become a complementary, early-warning strategy for outbreaks of Covid-19, aiding… Read more
Stability and efficiency improvement of perovskite solar cells by controlling synthesis and deposition processing parameters
Organic–inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have gained extensive research interest in the last decade due to their low-cost fabrication, excellent optoelectronic properties, and rapid increase in power conversion efficiency. Read more
Next generation radiation detectors for in-vivo quality assurance in Medical Physics
The proposed research project aims to investigate the performance of organic and perovskite materials for dosimetry in photon and hadron therapy applications. Read more
Enzyme-responsive peptide hydrogel as in situ forming long-acting drug delivery implants
One of the key issues in the treatment and prevention of disease is that patients struggle to adhere to the complex dosage regimens of therapies, which often require multiple dosing at very specific times each day. Read more
U-RHYTHM: developing a novel technology for the investigation of tissue-level thyroid and sex hormone dynamics in humans
Background. Rhythms characterise all living things, and our physiology can be a considered as a state of continuous dynamic equilibrium. Read more
Translational Medicine: Understanding the mechanism(s) of resistance to EPA to personalise therapy and improve outcome
Advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is the UK’s second most lethal cancer, with limited treatment options for unresectable metastatic tumours. Read more
High-throughput discovery of novel antibiotics using synthetic microbiology
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a frequent problem in the treatment of disease caused by several clinical bacterial pathogens. In the European Union, antibiotic-resistant infections kill nearly 25,000 patients and represent a total expenditure of £1.5 billion per year. Read more
Cleaner Waste Systems through Simultaneous CO2 Capture and Utilisation
The water and wastewater sector are responsible for around 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Every day, large volumes of sludge are generated, which must be treated to reuse standard but the sector is constrained on the amount of waste it can process due to the poor biodegradability of solids. Read more
Integration of algal biofuel and biogas production
There is an increased international interest in the use of algae to sustainably produce liquid biofuels to meet future energy demands, however there are many technical challenges associated with this promising technology. Read more
