Common genetic origins of visual and neurocognitive disorders

There is emerging evidence that apparently distinct neurodegenerative diseases have common genetic origins. For example, genes such as ARMS2 and HTRA1, which are fundamental to regulating neuronal health, are implicated in both dementia and diseases of the retina (particularly age-related macular degeneration).

Engineering plant microbiome PhD: Exploring and engineering the plant microbiome for increased resilience

Title. Exploring and engineering the plant microbiome for increased resilience. Project Description. Plants are impacted by numerous abiotic and biotic factors above and below ground, such as nutrient availability, local climatic conditions, and the surrounding fauna. Read more

Optimising dynamic scheduling in smart manufacturing through reinforcement learning PhD

This PhD aims to develop an adaptive self-organising solution for dynamic scheduling in job-shop manufacturing. The research will introduce an innovative approach that integrates deep reinforcement learning and multi-agent systems to rapidly respond to emergencies and disruptions. Read more

Self funded MSc by Research or PhD in Biology: Ion channel signalling in cancer cells

Lead supervisor: Dr W Brackenbury. The student will be registered with the Department of Biology. Our cells constantly sense and transport ions present in their environment. Read more

Investigating the self-organizing properties of cardiac cells in vivo

The key aims of this PhD project are to use knowledge gathered from high precision in vivo imaging and active matter physics-based theoretical modelling to assess how patterns of cardiac cell contractility drive cardiac tissue curvature. Read more

Engineering extracellular vesicles/exosomes for the treatment of ocular disease

Extracellular vesicles, also referred to as exosomes, are membrane‐bound particles containing huge numbers of proteins as well as genetic material in the form of RNA (mRNA and miRNA). Read more
