EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Molecular Sciences for Medicine - 4 year PhD Studentships
Applications are welcome for further projects within our CDT to commence in September/October 2023. Please visit our webpage for up-to-date information regarding the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Molecular Sciences for Medicine (MoSMed). Read more
Engineering therapeutic immune-biomaterials for tissue engineering applications
Current regenerative medicine strategies aim to restore the function of damaged or diseased tissues with functional and site-appropriate implants. Read more
Patient-Specific Stem Cells to Interrogate the Molecular Mechanism of Pain in Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathways. Read more
Investigating the Role of Polyphenol-Rich Fruit in Managing Pain to Facilitate Sleep Quality (Ref: RDFC23/HLS/SER/WALSHE)
Chronic pain is a common complaint amongst adults, with a prevalence ranging from 10-40%. The consequences of those experiencing pain can range from personal difficulties to an increased economic burden. Read more
Optimising the therapeutic effects of blood flow restriction exercise within UK Defence Rehabilitation practice. Ref: RDFC22/HLS/SER/CAPLAN
Pain is among the primary limiting factors to progress in individuals experiencing musculoskeletal injury (MSKI) and may be caused by trauma or degenerative factors. Read more
Transforming neuro-pathology with deep learning (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/Schwalbe)
Medulloblastoma is the most common central nervous system tumour of childhood. Although advances in treatment have raised survival to ~75%, there remains significant numbers of patients who die of their disease. Read more
THE CELLULAR ORIGIN OF SPATIAL DIFFERENCES FOR THE MATURATION OF LIGHT RESPONSES (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/HILGEN)
Vision is probably our most important sense. Vision starts in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye. It is a well-layered structure with synaptic (connections of neurons) and nuclear (cell bodies) layers. Read more
Optimisation of bone and joint cell behaviour on novel orthopaedic metal implant materials: New solutions to joint implants design, manufacture and biological testing. (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/Racey)
Testing of novel orthopaedic surfaces for-. Biocompatibility. Antimicrobial activity. Read more
3D-modeling of human skeletal muscle for in vitro functional assaying (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/SIMOES)
Muscle tissue are found throughout our body and is responsible for mobility, metabolism, and breathing. Read more
Mechanistic design of effective pharmaceutical cocrystal formulations
It is estimated that more than 70 percent of the compounds in the pharmaceutical pipeline can be poorly water-soluble. Since solid drug forms must dissolve before absorption can occur, strategies to improve drug solubility and dissolution are a continuous need. Read more
Biomedical Neuroprosthetics
This PhD will perform research into cutting-edge implantable biomedical devices for the brain – also known as neuroprosthetics. Our implants use an… Read more
Advanced biomaterials for future-proof pharmaceutical formulations
While traditional, small molecule drugs continue to play a significant role due to their oral bioavailability, they also suffer from lower selectivity, frequently accompanied with side-effects. Read more
Development of bioinks to bioprinit an in vitro model of the gut mucosa
This research aims to study the influence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on the onset of ankylosis spondylarthritis (AS) through 3D in vitro modelling of the synovium and gut, in healthy and inflamed states, assessing changes in cell phenotypes and cytokine production. Read more
MycoTACs: Proteome targeting chimeras for Mycobacterium tuberculosis
PROteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) are a promising and recent technological development utilised in the degradation of proteins in eukaryotes. Read more
Microneedle biosensors for rapid and painless disease diagnosis
This project aims to develop rapid disease diagnostics based on transdermal microneedle biosensors. Disease diagnosis often relies on invasive tissue sampling techniques, such as blood sampling or skin biopsies, in order to extract biomarkers for analysis. Read more
