Data-driven optimal prediction of bacteria growth

The University of Manchester Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering

This project is devoted to an AI-based prediction of bacteria growth and its control by antibiotics. In synthetic biology, an improved understanding of bacterial regulatory circuits is required to develop complex biological systems with functionalities beyond existing in nature [1, 2]. Read more

New Methods for modelling cofactor-dependent enzyme structure and function

The University of Manchester Department of Chemistry

Enzymes are Nature’s catalysts and many used cofactors and/or coenzymes to catalyse their reactions. While AI and homology methods now often allow the useful prediction of protein structure from amino acid sequence, this can be more challenging when the protein/enzyme contain cofactors. Read more

Optimal prediction of dynamical systems with incomplete data

The University of Manchester Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering

Dynamical systems describe a variety of real-life problems related to evolution over time. It is often the case that the problems are so complicated that mathematical models for them either do not exist or are not accurate enough. Read more

Machine Learning approaches to improve the efficiency of fluid dynamics simulations

The University of Manchester Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering

OpenFOAM and CFD simulations are often computational expensive both in terms of resources and time. CFD codes often use explicit methods that require small time steps of the order of micro-nano seconds. Read more
