Modelling and Computation for Radiation Chemistry at Interfaces
This project is an interdisciplinary collaboration between Mathematics and Chemistry. Real-world applications include safe radioactive wate disposal, plutonium stewardship and radiation based cancer care. Read more
Developing novel light-induced in-situ Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) methods
Light-induced in-situ Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) studies are a growing field in both continuous wave and pulsed EPR. It can be used to monitor photoactivated chemical and biochemical reactions involving radical reagents, projects or intermediates. Read more
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
Viral-surface interactions studied by vibrational sum-frequency spectroscopy
The recent COVID-19 pandemic, and in particular fomite transmission of the virus, led to a lot of interest in how viral particles attached to surfaces, their survival times on different materials and how they transferred to hosts. Read more
New Polymer Biomaterials to Expand and Deliver Cells with Animal-Free Technologies
This PhD will seek to discover new polymeric biomaterials which can modulate stem-cell function, and aid in their delivery to either patients, or as cell factories. Read more
Rational design of photo/electrocatalysts towards Green Nitrogen Fixation and Ammonia Production
In an era marked by the urgent need for sustainable solutions, this project stands at the forefront of innovation in catalysis, focusing on the rational design of photo/electrocatalysts for nitrogen fixation and ammonia production. Read more
Polymer Materials to Store Biologics at Room Temperature
Biologics are cell and protein-based therapies which are transforming medical outcomes. This spans insulin for diabetes, glucagon-like peptides for obesity, CAR-T cells for cancer and more. 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
(MRC DTP) Robust quantification of iron deposition in the heart using MRI
We are seeking a highly motivated student with a strong background in engineering or physics/physical chemistry with an interest in cardiac physiology and the mechanisms of heart failure. Read more
Understanding biomolecule controls on mineral transformations and biogeochemical cycles
Project overview. Minerals play a pivotal role in shaping Earth's biogeochemical cycles, exerting control over the mobility, speciation and (bio)availability of key nutrients, pollutants and technology-critical elements. 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
(MRC DTP) Peptide hydrogels for delivery of therapeutics for ophthalmic applications
"Wet" macular degeneration and related retinal diseases are a leading cause of sight loss, impacting 570,000 people in UK and at least 96M worldwide. Read more
(MRC DTP) Rational design of peptide-based cell delivery systems for stem cell therapies
Interested in exploring the untapped potential of stem cells in tissue regeneration and healing using cutting-edge interdisciplinary research techniques?. 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
