Combinatorial Discovery of Peptide Materials as Ice Binding Protein Mimics
Ice Binding Proteins (IBPs) help extremophiles survive in the worlds coldest environments, but are also used by microorganisms to damage hosts by promoting ice formation. Read more
Optimising the delivery of light into Electron Paramagnetic Resonance samples
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is a magnetic resonance method that can be used to study any systems containing unpaired electrons. Read more
Selective Extraction of Radiotherapeutic Metals for Targeted Alpha Cancer Therapy
Saturn_Nuclear_CDT. Nuclear fission produces radioactive isotopes that are considered as waste and are currently disposed. Read more
New Degradable Polymers for Biotechnology
Extremophiles have evolved to survive in the world’s coldest environments, through the production of specialised macromolecules, such as antifreeze proteins and ‘ice nucleating proteins. Read more
New optical techniques for non-destructive sensing and monitoring
Technical paints provide essential corrosion protection to our infrastructure, which is vital to ensure public safety and drive down the unacceptable economic and carbon cost associated with the replacement of metals. Read more
Organic coatings microstructure: insights from molecular simulations
Watching paint dry can be fascinating. Painting a room can make it aesthetically pleasing, but paints can do much more than just please the eyes. Read more
Development of polymerisation-induced self-assembly (PISA) systems for mechanochemical transformations
Block copolymers (BCPs) have potential in applications ranging from drug delivery to sensing or functional coatings due to their ability to form a wide range of controlled self-assembled nanostructures in solution. Read more
Characterising human sebum using NMR approaches
We have recently shown that skin secretions in particular sebum, has a critical diagnostic role in other diseases unrelated directly to the skin. Read more
Peptide controlled growth of photoactive lead halide perovskite materials for solar and photodetector applications
Lead halide perovskites have shown tremendous promise as materials for novel photovoltaics with exceptionally high efficiencies and low cost manufacture, but their application is limited due to the inherent stability of the materials. Read more
Alumina based ceramic nanocomposites through lean electrolytic plasma processing of Al alloys
We welcome applications from candidates to work with our interdisciplinary and collaborative team on a project on research and development of innovative surface treatments of advanced engineering materials. Read more
Development of ceramic thermal and environmental barrier coatings for high temperature applications
Research Group:
Coatings and Ceramics
Ceramic coatings are vital in high-temperature applications, especially in aero-engines and the power generation industry. These coatings increase the engine’s operating temperature to improve efficiency and reduce the engine’s environmental impact. Read more
Targeting glycans on the outside of cells, as new therapeutics
Most drugs have intracellular targets (proteins etc). This creates a barrier to how to target a cell, and then get the drug inside the cell. Read more
Metamaterials for catalysis
A meta-atom is an engineered sub-wavelength structure that, when periodically arranged like an atomic lattice, enable optical, electronic, thermal, and chemical functionalities not seen in conventional designs. Read more
In-situ Measurement and Modelling of Crevice Corrosion Kinetics in Stainless Steel
Crevice corrosion involves the breakdown of the protective passive oxide layer on stainless steels, leading to unprotected metal corroding at rapid rates due to the formation of electrical cells coupling the active corroding areas to the oxide covered, or passive areas. Read more
Plasma-coupled Electro-catalysis
This is a unique and cutting-edge PhD research opportunity in the multidisciplinary field of materials chemistry and electro-catalysis for a student with… Read more
