Life in hot springs: understanding the development of mineral-organic matter assemblages and their role in carbon cycling
Microorganisms are central to global carbon cycling, facilitating carbon[BV1] transformation and influencing its long-term stability in various ecosystems. Read more
Spin-chains of Stable Graphene NanoRibbons
The formation of ordered magnets, such as spin-chains representing one-dimensional arrays of spins, relies on cooperative effects among magnetic spins. Read more
Mechanochemistry with mechanical bonds
Any force developed at the macroscopic scale can induce dramatic changes at the molecular scale, even breaking covalent bonds.[1] Indeed, mechanical force is a formidable source of energy that, with its ability to distort, bend and stretch chemical bonds, is unique in its ability to promote reaction pathways that are otherwise inaccessible to traditional methods of activation.

Exploring Momoatomic Oxygen in Organic Synthesis
Low-valent reactive intermediates continue to play a central role in organic synthesis. But while we are taught about the generation and reactivity of carbenes and nitrenes, the chemistry of oxene – the low-valent monoatomic form of oxygen – remains virtually unexplored. 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
Computational design of tailored open-shell conjugated systems
To be successful, organic electronics devices must be able to replicate and surpass the capabilities of conventional silicon-based electronics. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Searching for Technosignatures as anomalies in astronomical digital data
The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) traditionally focuses on detecting technosignatures—observable phenomena indicating the presence of advanced, civilisations. Read more
(Bicentenary) Illuminating hidden interactions in ubiquitin-like protein networks for genome stability
The posttranslational modification of proteins is key to virtually all cellular activities, including the DNA damage response, a signalling network critical for maintaining genome stability. Read more
(Bicentenary) Developing WSB-1 inhibitors as anti-cancer therapeutic agents
More effective therapeutic approaches targeting tumour metastases remains a clear area on unmet need in cancer research, especially considering the majority of patients unfortunately die from metastatic rather than primary disease. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Design of Enzymes for Applications in RNA Therapeutics Manufacturing
The field of biocatalysis has advanced to the stage where it is now viewed as a key enabling technology for the development of a greener and more efficient chemical industry. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Catalysis-driven molecular machinery
A recent series of breakthroughs (Nature 604, 80 (2022), Nat. Chem. 14, 728 (2022), J. Am. Chem. Soc. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Accurate Design of Enzymes using Deep Learning
The ability to reliably design efficient enzymes from scratch would have profound impacts on chemistry, biotechnology and medicine. Read more
(Bicentenary) Super-resolution proximity nucleotide labelling
The spatiotemporal coordination of biomolecular interactions is fundamental to every known biological process. Read more
Volcanic fluid flow and release of greenhouse gases as drivers for the Paleocene-Eocene hyperthermals
Simulations of Earth’s response to current and future greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are limited by our current knowledge of Earth-climate feedbacks, creating large uncertainties in numerical climate models. 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
