The physics of polymer glasses in confined geometries and in the bulk

The formation and behaviour of glassy disordered non-equilibrium solids is one of the deepest unsolved questions in physics, as demonstrated by the seminal contributions to the problem by the 2021 Nobel laureate in physics, Giorgio Parisi. Read more

Chiral Gravitons in Topological Quantum Matter: From Solid-State Materials to Quantum Computers

  Research Group: School of Physics and Astronomy
A major open problem in modern physics is the table-top generation and detection of emergent particles analogous to gravitons. the elusive mediators of gravitational force in a quantum theory of gravity. Read more

Advanced Networking Techniques for Quantum Space-Aerial-Terrestrial Integrated Networks

  Research Group: Bradford-Renduchintala Centre for Space AI
In beyond 5G and 6G communication networks, the need for robust security systems is paramount to securely store and share vast amounts of data globally. Read more

Understanding Atomic-scale Friction

  Research Group: School of Physics and Astronomy
This project, based in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Leeds, aims to investigate the origins of friction at the scale of the a single atom, using cutting-edge atomic resolution scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and non-contact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) techniques, in the group of Dr Adam Sweetman.  .

20 fully funded, four-year PhD studentships are available in the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Soft Matter for Formulation and Industrial Innovation (SOFI2 CDT) commencing in September 2023, for graduates in the physical and biological sciences, mathematics and engineering. Read more

Pushing the Resolution Limits of High-Speed Atomic Force Microscopy

  Research Group: School of Physics and Astronomy
Understanding the structural dynamics of complex molecules is vital to advancing our knowledge of materials, medicine and diseases, yet there are few techniques which can capture motions at high enough speeds or resolution to understand the underlying behaviour. Read more

Intelligent Techniques for Reliability Prediction and Improvement of Free-Space Optics-based Future Satellite Communication Systems

  Research Group: Bradford-Renduchintala Centre for Space AI
Satellite communications play a pivotal role in our modern world, driving global efforts towards the development of next-generation satellite communication systems. Read more

Predictive control of crystallisation through correlative studies of molecular fragments

This interdisciplinary project presents an exciting opportunity for an ambitious scientist or engineer to work across the boundaries of chemistry, physics and engineering, with opportunities to develop a broad portfolio of skills. Read more

Cancer: Epigenetic therapy using microbubble-mediated drug delivery for colorectal cancer

The project is an interdisciplinary, pre-clinical study that aims to investigate the response of human tumour cells to treatment with epigenetic inhibitors (including DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, HDAC inhibitors and/or vitamin C), as a potential combination therapy for colorectal cancer (CRC). Read more

Exploring Sensorimotor Function and Developing Rehabilitation Strategies using Experimental and Computational Approaches

In collaboration with a multidisciplinary team consisting of biologists, clinicians, engineers, mathematicians, and computational biologists and startups around the globe, we aim to decipher the organizational principles of sensorimotor function in mammals. Read more

Quantum Many-Body Scars and Weak Ergodicity Breaking in Rydberg-Atom Quantum Simulators

  Research Group: School of Physics and Astronomy
A perennial mystery of nature is how order can exist amidst chaos. Familiar systems such as the clock pendulum exhibit regular periodic motion. Read more
