Stress and health: Lifespan stress and cardio-metabolic disease risk pathways through cardiovascular stress reactivity

  Research Group: SPARKLE - Stirling Physical Activity Research, Knowledge & Learning Exchange
There are large physiological variations in how individuals respond to stressful stimuli which have important health and behavioural implications (Carroll… Read more

Sustainable Chemicals Innovations Enabling Net Carbon Emissions (SCIENCE)

A PhD studentship working with Professor Darren Walsh is available for a 2023 start as part a major collaborative project (EPSRC Prosperity Partnership) between Lubrizol and the Universities of Nottingham and Warwick. Read more

PhD programmes at the University of Pavia, Italy

Our PhD programmes cover a wide range of topics and are organized into three disciplinary groups. Science and Technology, Life Science, Human and Social Science. Read more

Advanced vibration isolation and control for a large suspended optical cavity

The gravitational wave interferometer detectors are the most sensitive instrument in the world. They sense the position change of test masses due to the passing gravitational waves to the precision in the order of 10-20m!  The planned future detectors are aiming to improve the sensitivity 10-fold and broaden the sensitive frequency range. Read more

Investigating platelet signalling and thrombus formation

We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in cardiovascular cell biology to work in the group of Dr Natalie Poulter, which focuses on understanding how platelets become activated and form a thrombus. Read more

Quantifying the enhancement of swimming performance through strength and conditioning / performance analysis interventions

About the Project. Despite its global appeal, swimming has been slow to embrace microtechnology in competition. This has now changed and has opened the door for researchers to investigate new conditioning practices and challenge the way things have always been done. Read more

Energy Market Transition for Net Zero

As the world grapples with the urgent need to mitigate climate change and achieve a net-zero carbon emissions future, understanding and reshaping energy markets is of paramount importance. Read more

Understanding transcription factor complexes controlling endothelial cell quiescence and escape from quiescence

Endothelial cell proliferation and lymphatic cell proliferation is initiated during angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis respectively and are both regulated by the VEGF signalling pathway. With some exceptions, endothelial and lymphatic cells in healthy individuals are quiescent and do not proliferate. Read more

Investigating the communication between cancer cells and cells in the tumour microenvironment to improve our understanding of epigenetic regulatory mechanisms and identify new targets for cancer therapy

It is well-established that the molecular mechanisms controlling gene expression are disrupted in cancer cells and work in this area has laid the foundations for targeted cancer therapies. We are interested in the regulatory pathways that control cell proliferation and cell migration and the events that disrupt this control in multiple types of cancer.

Integrated omics approach to psychiatric disorders

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
In psychiatry, the selection of antipsychotics and antidepressants is led by a trial-and-error approach. The prescribing of these medications is complicated by sub-optimal efficacy and high rates of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Read more
