Transmission of self-harm from parents to children: identifying mechanisms and informing intervention
This interdisciplinary PhD project will provide training in epidemiology, genetics, and advanced longitudinal methods. Read more
Do experiences in Virtual Reality change body perception and satisfaction, in individuals with and without eating disorders
Congenital heart disease (CHD) affects 1/110 births, causes 220,000 deaths/year and affects 13+ million worldwide. The aetiology of CHD is complex, with evidence of both genetic and environmental causes, and identifying sub-phenotypes of CHD remains challenging. Read more
Exploring the interplay and mechanisms between sleep, circadian rhythms and physical activity in relation to physical and mental health
Understanding the interplay between physical activity and sleep is important for improving physical and mental health. A proposed mechanism linking physical activity with improved sleep is through regulation of circadian (24-hour) rhythms in the body. Read more
Measurement of mental health in ethnically and geographically diverse populations
Many tools to assess mental health were developed based on behaviours and feelings in white western populations. 18% of the UK population belong to Black, Asian, mixed, or other ethnic groups, and more than 80% of people who have mental health disorders live in a low- or middle-income country.

Contactless vital signs and movement monitoring and brain development in extremely premature infants- a translational study
Currently used wired contact-based sensor system for vital sign monitoring in extremely premature babies, born before 28 weeks of pregnancy, could damage their skin and impede skin-skin contact with their parents, affecting parent-infant bonding. Read more
Funded PhD – Using diverse cohorts, methods and novel measures to understand the relationship between diet, physical activity and health outcomes
Background. Certain aspects of diet (e.g., high salt intake, low fibre intake) and lower physical activity are known to cause poorer health outcomes. Read more
Funded PhD – Optimising uptake and personalisation of digital health interventions for under-served groups: a case study with the Drink Less app
Digital health interventions can be effective at changing behaviours and can overcome lots of barriers to receiving face-to-face interventions such as stigma and accessibility. Read more
Funded PhD – The MEME project: Making Exercise interventions More Effective for depression and anxiety.
Across multiple meta-analyses and reviews, exercise is repeatedly shown to improve symptoms of depression and anxiety in both clinical and nonclinical populations1. Read more
Funded PhD – The impact of parental mental health on the neural substrate of early executive function development
In recent years we have made new discoveries in how young children develop executive functions – important skills that allow children to adapt flexibly in their daily lives. Read more
Funded PhD- Investigating the neurobiological mechanisms underlying apathy in Parkinson’s disease
Apathy is a debilitating and highly prevalent symptom in people with Parkinson’s disease. It is often refractory to conventional dopaminergic therapy and is associated with poorer health-related quality of life. Read more
