Most patients with rheumatoid arthritis begin treatment with the drug methotrexate (MTX). MTX is cheap and is effective for many patients, but does not work for everyone.
A fully-funded iCASE PhD position in AI Driven Mesoscopic Material Design is available in the Multiscale Modelling Group at the School of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Science (CEAS) at the University of Manchester, working with Dr Alessandro Patti, in collaboration with Dr Breanndán Ó Conchúir from IBM Research at Daresbury.
The development of sustainable bio-manufacturing routes for both platform and high-value chemicals (e.g. biofuels, food supplement) is a high priority area to establish a low carbon economy and achieve energy/food security.
Applications are invited for a fully funded 3.5 year PhD studentship in the School of Chemical Engineering & Analytical Science of the University of Manchester.
Scraped surface heat exchangers (SSHE) are widely used in (for example) the food industry, where there is a requirement for heat exchange, crystallization, aeration and other continuous processes.
Clinical prediction models (CPMs), which predict the occurrence of an event of interest given what is known about an individual, could enable a personalised and preventative approach to healthcare.
Gas adsorption is one of the key physical processes that underlie the numerous industrial uses of porous solids. These include separation processes (adsorption and membrane processes), catalytic reactions, energy storage, and gas recovery from unconventional plays.
The properties of emulsions are linked to their microstructure. One of the most important characteristics of its micro-structure is their droplet size distribution (DSD) which has a direct impact on its rheological behavior, stability, and interfacial area.
