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.

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

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 biosensor for monitoring cell biomarkers of islet cell function and viability. Read more
Closing the Healthcare Gap – Understanding the Mechanics of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in Women
Research Group:
School of Mechanical Engineering
Pelvic floor dysfunction is a distressing condition that affects millions of women globally, often causing pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence, with a significant impact on daily life and well-being. Read more
Mathematical Signal Processing and Machine Learning approaches to understand and define the abnormal heart tissue responsible for fatal heart rhythms
Find out more and apply now. Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) accounts for approximately 15-20% of reported deaths in the UK. Those most effected by SCA are people with structural and functional abnormalities of the heart. Read more

Integrating Morphology and Biomechanics: Developing a Statistical Shape and Appearance Model (SSAM) for Spinal Health Assessment and Intervention Plan
Research Group:
School of Mechanical Engineering
Back pain, the leading cause of disability in the UK, is often due to intervertebral disc degeneration. Surgical interventions, including fixation devices, frequently fail due to a lack of consideration for patient-specific variability in vertebral shape, spinal curvature, and bone density. Read more
Development of decellularised rectus sheath fascia (dCELL-RSF) for the repair of abdominal wall defects
Research Group:
School of Mechanical Engineering
The R&D team at NHS Blood and Transplant (NHS-BT) in conjunction with the Department of Surgery at Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge have expressed the need for a decellularised rectus sheath fascia (dCELL-RSF) for the repair of abdominal wall defects. Read more

EASTBIO: Synchronising the Brain: Electrical Synapses and Motor Control
Neurons need to be able to communicate quickly with each other to allow an animal to respond to an ever-changing environment. Electrical synapses, mediated by gap junctions, are critical for this rapid neuronal communication. Read more
