Research in the Kaltsoyannis group focuses on the computational determination of the electronic structure and bonding in molecules and solids from all areas of the periodic table, with particular emphasis on compounds of the f elements. Read more
Exploiting druggability host spots in protein phosphatase targets
In the past years the use of virtual screening or computer-based screening of compound libraries against selected targets has expanded exponentially the boundaries of drug discovery. Read more
Sustainable separation of organic carbonates and alcohols using novel solvents
Research Group:
Sustainable Industrial Engineering
The sustainable production of organic carbonates is attracting increasing interest owing to their properties as fuel additives, green solvents or in the formulation of paints or in batteries to mention a few examples. Read more
A step change in the modelling of enzymatic catalysis
A deep understanding of enzymatic processes requires an atomic-level description, which is often beyond experimental techniques but achievable through synergy with computational chemistry. Read more
Designing phosphatase inhibitors using novel quantum mechanical calculations.
Phosphatases play important regulatory roles in biochemical pathways that have been linked to a range of human diseases, including. Read more
Modelling Crystal Growth for Crystal Habit Control and Rational Process Design
This project, based at The University of Manchester( UoM), is a collaboration between UoM and BASF, the world’s leading chemical company, that supports the development of advanced modelling capabilities for the prediction of crystal shape and morphology (habit), and the design of crystallization processes. Read more
Modelling photosynthetic water oxidation
This project aims use molecular modelling methods and spectroscopy to understand how the protein environment of electron transfer cofactors in photosysnthesis and in particular how the water oxidising complex, facilitates electron transfer and also helps stabilise these radical species to maintain a charge separated state.

PhD in Non-thermal Plasma Methods for Sustainable Catalysis
Research Group:
Sustainable Industrial Engineering
Catalysis is a key technology for multiple industries and will play a critical role to achieve net zero ambitions. In 2020 bp set a goal of being a net zero company by 2050 or sooner and helping the world get to net zero. Read more
PhD in Life Cycle Assessment for Sustainable Catalysis
Catalysis is a key technology for multiple industries and will play a critical role to achieve net zero ambitions. In 2020 bp set a goal of being a net zero company by 2050 or sooner and helping the world get to net zero. Read more
CRISPR-activation to prevent genetic eye disease
Mutations causing a lack of sufficient protein activity resulting from haploinsufficiency or hypomorphic alleles are the cause of most inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs). Read more
Molecular simulation of adsorbents for air separation
Efficient production of oxygen from air is key in many technologies. In this project we aim to explore the potential of novel adsorbents for air separation where different regeneration approaches are considered. Read more
Theory-led design of high-performance thermoelectric materials for clean energy
Transitioning to clean energy to mitigate climate change is among the most important scientific and technological challenges of the 21st Century. Read more
A bioinformatics approach to understanding protein solubility tags.
The crowded environment of a cell cytoplasm reveals that proteins and other biological molecules co-exist at high macromolecular concentrations. Many… Read more
