PhD in Soft Robotics

University of Birmingham Department of Mechanical Engineering

Soft robots are a relatively new form of robotic system that has seen a significant increase in interest in recent years. Unlike a traditional robot, soft robots do not consist of hard, heavy, and rigid material and instead are formed from lightweight flexible materials. Read more

Biophysical explorations of neural crest cell behaviours in development and cancer

King’s College London School of Natural & Mathematical Sciences

Neural crest cells are highly migratory. These cells travel throughout the developing embryo, eventually contributing to most organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system, pigment cells and craniofacial skeleton. Read more

MSc by Research: Function of presomitic mesoderm specific phosphorylation of the Notch intracellular domain in somitogenesis

University of Dundee School of Life Sciences

The Notch signalling pathway is one of the key pathways required for the developing embryo. It is especially important for the process of somitogenesis, the formation of body segments that develop into e.g. Read more

MSc by Research: m6A modification of segmentation clock mRNAs and its role in somitogenesis

University of Dundee School of Life Sciences

During early embryogenesis, segments (somites) are formed during a process called somitogenesis. These somites will go on to form the bones and muscles of the skeleton. Read more
