PhD scholarship – Materials Flows/Life Cycle Analysis to Support a Circular Economy for the Wellbeing of New Zealand
Background. The current linear extract-produce-use-dispose material flow model of the modern economic system is unsustainable and needs to be addressed. Read more
Quantifying the enhancement of swimming performance through strength and conditioning / performance analysis interventions
About the Project. Despite its global appeal, swimming has been slow to embrace microtechnology in competition. This has now changed and has opened the door for researchers to investigate new conditioning practices and challenge the way things have always been done. Read more
Electrical ringbarking of wilding trees
New Zealand, in common with many other countries, has a problem with invasive plant species which can colonize areas of the land, displacing endemic and indigenous flora and destroying the habitat of endemic and indigenous fauna. Read more
Novel magneto-thermal catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation
The project. A circular CO. 2. economy requires the capture and conversion of carbon dioxide into useful products and materials. But this is complicated by the high chemical stability of carbon dioxide. Read more
AC Loss research in high temperature superconductors for fusion technology
We have a fully funded PhD scholarship available for research into experimental and numerical study of energy dissipation (AC loss) in high temperature superconductors for nuclear fusion technology. Read more
Superconducting bearings for high-speed machines
Would you like to contribute to building a sustainable low-emissions future? High power-density superconducting motors and generators are being actively studied as solutions for powering future large-scale electric aircraft. Read more
PhD in extremophile microbiology
PhD in extremophile microbiology. Department of Chemical and Process Engineering and School of Biological Sciences. University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand. Read more
Controlling parasitic varroa mites and viral disease in honey bee hives using immunotherapy
One of the greatest threats and costs for the honey bee industry is the parasitic varroa mite and the viral diseases the parasite spreads. Read more
Cancer epigenetics and bioinformatics PhD project
About the Project. We are seeking a highly motivated student with high GPA preferably with knowledge of the following areas. bioinformatics, epigenetics/genetics/genomics. Read more
Protein fermentation in the human colon
We are seeking a PhD candidate for a great opportunity. You need to be an enthusiastic learner and have demonstrated academic excellence in nutrition, food science or microbiology to undertake research on colonic protein fermentation and its potential impact on gut health. Read more
Protecting Mum: how hormones act on neural circuitry to regulate postpartum mood and behaviour
Mammals give birth to dependent offspring and significant parental involvement is required to ensure offspring survive. During pregnancy and in the early postpartum period, hormones act on neural circuitry to bring about key changes in a mother's mood and behaviour. Read more
Fully funded PhD scholarship - Sport and Exercise Science
Fully funded PhD scholarship (fees and stipend) available for a sport and exercise science (or related discipline) graduate student. Read more
Role of RyR2 posttranslational modification in arrhythmias
Cardiac arrhythmias remain the leading cause of death in patients with heart disease. An important trigger for arrhythmias is the inappropriate opening of the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2). Read more
Sex differences in epicardial fat modulation of cardiac function
This project will aim to determine whether structural and physiological properties of epicardial adipose tissue are responsible for the sex differences in human myocardial function and cardiac arrhythmogenicity. Read more
Oxytocin neuron activity in lactation
Pulsatile secretion of the hormone, oxytocin, is essential for milk delivery during suckling and its secretion from the posterior pituitary gland is triggered by coordinated bursts of action potentials across the population of oxytocin neurons. Read more
