Engineering minimal and cargo-activated protein transport machines
The project. Molecular motors are essential for life and efficiently transduce chemical energy to mechanical work. This project aims to elucidate the requirements for motility and energy transduction in motor proteins. Read more
Exploring the similarities between neointimal formation after vascular injury and tumour growth
Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation leads to intimal thickening, which causes reoccurrence of symptoms (restenosis) in 30-50% of coronary artery disease patients receiving saphenous vein grafts and individual receiving stent implantation. Read more

Unveiling intercellular dynamics in cancer progression using deep learning on single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data
The project. Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the second deadliest cancer worldwide, with a 5-year overall survival rate below 10%. CRC is classified into four consensus molecular subtypes (CMS1–4). Read more
MScR: Involvement of astrocytes in neurological manifestations of Long COVID syndrome
A significant fraction of patients affected by Long COVID, long-term consequences following acute SARS-CoV-2 infection, suffer from mental fatigue and cognitive deficits (1-3). Read more
Exploring the size-resolved toxicological properties of aerosols
Applications are invited for a 4 year PhD studentship starting in Autumn 2025 as part of the EPSRC CDT in Aerosol Science. Project description. Read more

Integrative AI-driven multi-omics analysis to decode the tumour microenvironment and its clinical implications in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The project. With over 1.5 million deaths annually, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Read more
Funded PhD- Fighting back: Understanding how novel antibiotics work to kill bacterial pathogens.
Background . Antibiotics have been widely regarded as the most significant class of pharmaceuticals and their discovery and development considered one of the most important medical advancements in history. Read more
Obesity, type 2 diabetes and the thrifty genotype hypothesis
The thrifty genotype hypothesis suggests that certain populations may have an inherent genetic predisposition to promote fat storage. Read more
Identifying the causes and cellular effects of Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)
A major factor in morbidity and mortality worldwide is end stage renal disease (ESRD). At least 10% of ESRD is caused by focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a form of steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome. Read more
Understanding and curing genetic kidney disease
Steroid Resistant Nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is a rare kidney condition which causes excess fluid to be retained in the body which causes swelling (oedema). Read more
Assessing neuroinflammation and vascular dementia in association with atherosclerosis and aneurysm risk
There is now substantial data demonstrating an association between high morbidity and mortality cardiovascular diseases (such as atherosclerosis and aortic aneurysms) with the onset of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly vascular dementia. Read more
Exploring the contribution of divergent neuroinflammation in Alzheimer’s disease
There is accruing evidence demonstrating an association between neuroinflammation with the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Read more
Does the brain renin angiotensin system influence the occurrence of depression in Alzheimer’s disease?
In the last decade the involvement of imbalance in counterbalancing arms of the brain Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) has been found to be a significant factor in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Read more
Targeting acute inflammation to reduce coronary artery vein graft failure using bioengineering
The long saphenous vein (LSV) is the most commonly used conduit in cardiac surgery to treat patients with coronary artery disease; however, its use is complicated by high failure rates due to the development of vascular inflammation, intimal hyperplasia (IH) and accelerated atherosclerosis.
