Sustainable synthesis of antiviral and anticancer drugs through chemoenzymatic routes. Nucleoside analogues (NAs) have been in clinical use for almost 50 years and are the cornerstone for the treatment of cancer or viral infections. Read more
Small Molecule Activation and Valorisation Using Low-Coordinate Complexes. Transition metal complexes featuring highly coordinatively and electronically unsaturated centres are challenging synthetic targets, but they show unusual reactivity which stems from their unique coordination environments.

Project Description. Nine in ten adults in the UK suffer from high or extreme stress in 2023. Stress-related disorders and burnout cost the UK economy more than £28 billion, 23 million sick days, and 165,000 bed days for the National Health Service (NHS) per year [1]. Read more
The School of Computer Science and Informatics at Cardiff University are delighted to offer fully funded EPSRC studentships starting in January or April 2025. Read more
Quantitative methods for studying human brain function are foundational to modern neuroscience. Among these, electroencephalography (EEG) stands out as a non-invasive technique that measures the brain's electromagnetic activity, offering crucial insights for both research and clinical applications.

Research Group:
Geometry, Algebra, Mathematical Physics and Topology (GAPT)
Operator algebras and quantum graphs. The primary goals of this project are to explore quantum graphs and their applications to operator algebras, and to develop techniques of non-commutative combinatorics. Read more
Mathematical analysis of runaway electrons in Tokamak reactors. The studentship project on mathematical kinetic theory will open mathematical research into the genesis of runaway electrons in fusion reactors. Read more
Fungal infections are a major threat to public health as they are becoming increasingly resistant to treatment. Only four classes of antifungals are available, with few candidates in the clinical pipeline. Read more
Solid state device fabrication underpinning semiconductor and quantum technology [1] relies heavily on etching and deposition techniques based on plasma chemical vapour deposition (CVD) [2,3]. Read more
Giant Rydberg excitons are recently discovered quantum objects that are generating considerable scientific excitement. They are different from conventional excitons, which are commonly observed near the band edge of semiconductor crystals because they have large sub-micron Bohr radii. Read more
