Background. The Antarctic Ice Sheet is the largest reservoir of freshwater on Earth. If it were to melt entirely, global sea levels would rise by an average of 58 metres. Read more
This PhD project is focused on understanding the mechanisms of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling and its role in cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Read more
The growing importance of artificial intelligence is fostering a paradigm shift in the world of hardware design. On the one hand, the increasing complexity of deep-learning models demands computers faster and more powerful than ever before. Read more
Background. The influence of aerosol particles on Earth’s energy balance, remains a major uncertainty in climate science. Even with increased model complexity, resolution, and data availability, aerosol and cloud interactions remain difficult to constrain, leaving gaps in understanding. Read more
Background. As climate change continues to unfold, enhanced early warning systems for natural hazards are a key part of disaster risk reduction. Read more
Background. Rainfed agriculture is a vital source of food and income for subsistence farmers in Kenya. Agricultural yields across Kenya are highly impacted by variations in rainfall on timescales from days to decades, with climate change altering the profile of rainfall-related risk. Read more
Background. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning circulation (AMOC) – a large-scale system of ocean currents – is critical for keeping North American and European climates mild. Read more
Background. Global models underpinning future projections struggle to capture African weather and climate change, to a large extent because the convective storms that generate tropical rainfall are below their coarse grid scale and have to be parameterised. Read more
Background. Sea-level rise presents one of the greatest environmental challenges for the global community. However, there is deep uncertainty in future projections beyond 2100. Read more
Neurodegenerative diseases of ageing such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases (AD and PD) have a huge societal and financial impact yet cost-effective therapies to delay or cure these diseases are lacking. Read more

Background. Landslides impact the railway network on average three times per week, and their frequency has increased by >50% in the last ten years. Read more
Background. This project offered as part of https://unrisk-cdt.ac.uk/. European wind storms cause insured losses of around €1.4 billion per year. Read more
