Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest threats facing humanity. In 2019, 5 million deaths were attributed to AMR, and it is projected to kill 10+ million per year by 2050. Read more
The Molecular Systems Engineering group (MSE) in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London, in collaboration with Eli Lilly and Company, has a fully-funded PhD studentship available for an October 2025 start. Read more
This project is one of 17 four year PhD Studentships funded by Medical Research Scotland (MRS) (https://www.medicalresearchscotland.org.uk) to be delivered jointly by the named University and External Partner Organisation (EPO). Read more
Project Summary. The Lee Group is recruiting a motivated PhD student to develop sustainable methodologies for photocatalytic and light-mediated reactions. Read more
Cancer has a major impact on society. Around 392,000 people are diagnosed with cancer each year in the UK (2020-2021) (https://www.macmillan.org.uk/). Read more
Despite mediating a plethora of vital biological processes in living organisms, peptides remain a challenging class of drug targets due to their poor cell penetration, proteolytic instability and unfavourable pharmacokinetics. Read more
About the Project. We have recently shown that ynones armed with the synthetically versatile trifluoroborate functional group can be elaborated to a range of useful heteroaromatic building blocks (Ref 1) and that these offer useful platforms for drug discovery (Ref 2). Read more
Inspired by Nature, we have developed a number of porphyrin containing biomimetic macromolecules. These have included a porphyrin cored polymer capable of reversibly binding oxygen. As such, these molecules have the potential to be applied as a plastic or artificial blood product. Read more
Proteins bind and recognise each other using large surface areas. This recognition process is vital for a variety of biological applications. Read more
When proteins are synthesised (using a natural or cell-based method), they are contaminated with hundreds of other proteins, nucleic acids and numerous… Read more
We have worked with a number of water soluble polymer systems capable of encapsulating and solubilising various hydrophobic drug moieties. Despite the formation of stable complexes, we have demonstrated that encapsulated drug can also be released. Read more
Arginine (Arg) is an amino acid critically involved in numerous biological functions including cell proliferation, cell signaling, muscle contraction, immunity… Read more
