Computational and Functional Comprehensive Analysis of Natural Variants of GPCRs towards a personalized medicine approach
This project investigates the impact of natural genetic variations on a specific G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), focusing on its structure, function, and drug interactions. Read more
Multifunctional Biomaterials to Combat Infection and Modulate Inflammation
Implantable medical devices are commonplace in modern medicine (e.g. joint replacements, stents, artificial heart valves, etc.), and are of increasing interest in the field of regenerative medicine. Read more
PULSE-CF: Polymicrobial communities in the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) airways-role in infection and pulmonary exacerbations.
The PULSE-CF Innovation Hub is one of four translational hubs being supported by the CF Trust and LifeArc over the next 5 years. The Hub is a multi-centre, multi-disciplinary collaborative initiative involving researchers at the University of Manchester, University of Liverpool and Queen’s University Belfast. Read more
PULSE-CF: Enhanced microbiological surveillance in people with Cystic Fibrosis (pwCF)
The PULSE-CF Innovation Hub is one of four translational hubs being supported by the CF Trust and LifeArc over the next 5 years. The Hub is a multi-centre, multi-disciplinary collaborative initiative involving researchers at the University of Manchester, University of Liverpool and Queen’s University Belfast. Read more

Peptide-like hydrogels as a long-acting multipurpose drug delivery platform for combined contraception and HIV prevention
HIV in women, girls and mother-to-child transmission in pregnancy remain a significant source of new infections and the needs of females are inadequately addressed. Read more
Investigating the impact of the gut microbiome on the health of older people
The impact of the gut microbiome on human health has demanded increasing attention in recent years. It is associated with myriad disease states, including diabetes, dementia, cardiorespiratory conditions, and many cancers. Read more
Development of next-generation nanoparticles loaded hydrogels containing multiple active agents for improved treatment of bacterial infections
Antimicrobial resistance has become a global public health problem and plays important roles in the development of severe infections and other related complications. Read more
Developing novel therapeutic strategies to better treat Triple Negative Breast Cancer
One in two people will develop cancer in their lifetime and it is a leading cause of death. While significant progress has been made in the treatment of some cancers, there still remain some forms of the disease with limited treatment options and poor outcome. . Read more
Combinations of bacteriophages and cold plasma for biofilm biocontrol
The ongoing antimicrobial resistance crisis has incentivised research into alternative antibacterial and antibiofilm agents. One of them is cold plasma and plasma-activated water (PAW), which is produced by exposing water to a cold plasma discharge. Read more
Co-production of a pharmacy-delivered very brief intervention to address physical activity, sedentary behaviour and other lifestyle behaviours
Being physically active offers various health benefits. Healthcare providers’, such as pharmacists, have an important role in promoting healthy lifestyle behaviours. Read more
Estimating the burden of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in children and adults
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is often characterised by overactive, inattentive, and impulsive behaviours which have a negative effect on academic, occupational, or social lives of people with this condition. Read more
Implementing and evaluating person-centred key performance indicators in nursing homes
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
As the population ages, more older adults will receive care through long-term care settings. We are currently moving from a medical view of care towards a more person-centred approach to care, valuing the personhood of the individual and not just treating or managing a disease. Read more
Understanding physical activity and sedentary behaviour in adults with congenital heart disease: co-design and feasibility testing of an intervention
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
Congenital heart defects are the most common birth defects, defined as clinically significant structural heart disease present at birth and affect approximately 1% of births. Read more
The impact of different health service systems upon patient outcomes after total knee arthroplasty: An exploration of the patient journey after total knee replacement
Research Group:
Nursing and Health
Osteoarthritis (OA) affects over 595 million people globally, making it the 11th leading cause of disability. It primarily impacts weight-bearing joints, especially the knee. Read more
