Computational imaging for democratisation of MRI in medicine
The Biomedical and Astronomical Signal Processing (BASP) laboratory at Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh (HWU), headed by Professor Yves Wiaux is recruiting a PhD student for research on computational imaging for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in low-resource settings. Read more
Impact Effects of Football Heading on Brain Tissue Structure (Ref: SF-UF-YL-25)
Head collisions and repetitive head impacts commonly occur in contact sports. These incidents only increase as the sport tends towards professional. Read more
Fully funded 4 Year PhD studentships in Biomedical Sciences
Applications are invited from outstanding students wishing to pursue a 4 Year PhD studentship in Biomedical Sciences from September 2025. Read more
Investigating the tissue response to a novel knee ligament implant
This full-time DPhil (PhD) post at the Botnar Institute, NDORMS, University of Oxford, will use cutting edge biomaterial and biological characterisation methods to investigate the tissue response to a novel knee ligament implant in vivo and ex vivo. Read more
Imaging with AI Integration for Early and Continuous Health Diagnostics and Monitoring (Ref: FP-BS-2025)
Why this research matters. Cancer remains the leading cause of death globally. Early detection is critical to improving survival rates, but traditional diagnostic methods such as CT and MRI are costly, inaccessible in underserved areas, and pose health risks due to ionising radiation. Read more
The German Primate Center (DPZ) – Leibniz Institute for Primate Research
The German Primate Center (DPZ) – Leibniz Institute for Primate Research is one of 96 research and infrastructure establishments of the Leibniz Association. Read more
Computer Vision with Responsible Artificial Intelligence for Human-Related Data
Human data is centric to many computer science, machine learning and biomedical engineering research. Such data includes human images/videos, motions and trajectories, medical images (X-ray, MRI, CT), faces, gestures, medical records, etc. Read more
Development of a robotic device for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Up to 25% of patients who undergo Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery report unsatisfactory functional outcomes (Lord et al., 2019). Read more
Antibacterial scaffolds
One of the common issues in orthopaedic surgery is bacterial infection of the surgical site after a surgical procedure. Read more
Explainable AI for Digital Healthcare
Artificial Intelligence plays a key role in transforming digital healthcare by enabling precision medicine and enhancing patient-centred care. Read more
Investigating the gut immune response in IBD related to mucus integrity and permeability using microfluidics
The gut microbiota (GM) plays a key role in human health due to its interaction with the immune system, influencing its maturation and modulation, consequently, dysbiosis may cause immune deregulation resulting in autoimmune and/or inflammatory diseases. Read more
EASTBIO: Hijacking new E3 ubiquitin ligases for targeted degradation of trans-membrane receptors.
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is emerging as an exciting modality for research and therapeutic applications. Molecular glue degraders and proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) hijack the cellular ubiquitin-proteasome (UPS) pathways to target the destruction of mainly intracellular target proteins. Read more
Decoding signalling crosstalks using microfluidics and engineered human pluripotent stem cells
Uncovering the molecular logic allowing cells to integrate multiple signalling cues is of paramount importance to understand how cells commit to distinct functional states during embryonic development, normal tissue function, regeneration and disease. Read more
Bionic Vision
This PhD is an opportunity to take part in research into advanced neuroprosthetic solutions to bringing sight back to the blind (i.e. Read more
EastBio - Development of electrochemical biosensors to assess islet cell viability during transplantation
This PhD project offers an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of chemistry, clinical science and biomedical engineering to develop an electrochemical… Read more
