The KNH Centre of Biomedical Egyptology at the University of Manchester (. Read more
Computation modelling of biological response to radiation at tissue level for Proton Therapy
Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) is a radically new type of radiotherapy that has the potential to improve the precision and targeting of radiotherapy leading to fewer side effects, faster recovery and better outcomes for patients. Read more
Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins in the DNA damage response and cancer
A self-funded PhD studentship is available in the laboratories of Christine Schmidt, Stefan Meyer and Anthony Whetton. Read more

Keywords. statistical genetics, precision medicine, autoimmune, idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, myositis, disease classification, machine learning. Read more
Process Development for Size and Shape Manipulation of Elongated Crystals
What is the PhD Project About?. This project will address one of the key challenges in crystallization process development. Crystallization is a separation and purification technique that is widely employed in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries. Read more
Multi-criteria Automatic Algorithm Configuration under Streaming Problem Instances (Manchester-Melbourne Dual Award)
Many critical problems in logistics, manufacturing, healthcare and other fields are solved by optimisation and machine learning algorithms. Read more
Method development and applications of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR)
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is a spectroscopic tool used to study systems containing unpaired electrons. EPR has wide ranging applications from materials science and quantum computing to structural biology and (bio)catalysis. Read more
The acquisition of complex sentences in children
Complex sentences such as those involving adverbial clauses (Before you eat your dinner, wash your hands) appear in children’s speech at about three years of age yet experimental studies have found that children have difficulty comprehending these sentences well into the school years. Read more
Proteomics to determine how defects in membrane trafficking within the secretory pathway cause human disease
Work in the Lowe laboratory is aimed at deciphering the molecular mechanisms that control membrane trafficking within cells. A major focus of our work is the trafficking of proteins to and through the Golgi apparatus, which lies at the heart of the secretory pathway. Read more
Functional dissection of disease associated genetic loci in rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic inflammatory disease characterized by inflammation of the joints and has a high socioeconomic burden. Read more
Understanding disease mechanisms in autoimmune inflammatory muscle disease
The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies are a spectrum of rare autoimmune disorders characterized by inflammation of muscle tissue (myositis), which leads to muscle weakness and fatigue, and heterogeneous systemic organ involvement. Read more
Understanding apoptotic heterogeneity in cell populations
Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that occurs in response to stress such as genomic damage. The decision to initiate apoptosis is taken at the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) by members of the Bcl-2 family of proteins. Read more
Mechanisms of nuclear translocation of IL-33 after stimulation of skin keratinocytes by S. aureus
Background. A quarter of children in the UK suffer from atopic dermatitis (eczema). Read more
Integral valorisation of waste biomass to obtain bioactive compounds and furans
Research Group:
Catalysis and Porous Materials
The project. The biorefinery concept has been gaining momentum in the last years as many countries have adopted policies and national strategies to steer towards a biobased economy. Read more
Hierarchical porous architectures for catalytic cascade reactions
Research Group:
Catalysis and Porous Materials
A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed, offering greater energy efficiency relative to non-catalytic pathways. Read more
