Evaluation of MCT1s role in chromatin remodelling and metabolomics changes involved in cancer progression
Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) is a transmembrane protein involved in cell metabolism and mediates transport of monocarboxylates (such as pyruvate and lactate) in both directions across plasma membrane. Read more
Discerning the role of metabolic proteins in nucleus
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which develops from cells lining pancreas ducts, represents 95% of all pancreatic cancer cases. Read more
Smart Crystals: Computer Vision and Machine Learning Assisted Industrial Crystallization Modeling and Control
This AstraZeneca-funded project (Macclesfield, U.K.) addresses key challenges in automating crystallization processes, a crucial separation and purification technique widely used in producing fine chemicals, including pharmaceuticals. Read more
Non-linear flows of antibodies
Non-linear flows of antibodies will be explored using next generation photonics techniques during this PhD studentship; a partnership between the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester and FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies. Read more
Modelling the biomechanical networks of the lung in heath and disease
We are looking for an exceptional student to take on an exciting interdisciplinary project at the interface of biomechanical modelling and respiratory medicine. Read more
(DTP EPSRC) Microstructure crack-growth relationships in Ti6Al4V
Titanium alloys are used extensively in the manufacture of aero-engine components, owing to their exceptional strength and relatively low density. Read more
Advancement and Application of Microwave and Radar Techniques for Non-Destructive Testing
With the growing use of non-metallic structural materials, such as glass fibre-reinforced plastic in the marine and renewable energy sectors and polymers for instance, high-density polyethylene in pipelines, non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of these materials is becoming a growing and pressing challenge.

Unravelling complex somatic genomic variations: advancing early diagnostics and precision medicine
Complex somatic structural variations (SVs) in genomic regions such as centromeres and telomeres play a crucial role in driving many genetic disorders. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) - Development of Functional Inks for Flexible Electronics
The project aims to contribute to the evolution of flexible electronics by focusing on developing cutting-edge functional inks. Read more
Sunlight exposure and cutaneous production of vitamin D in Black African/Afro-Caribbean adults
Our main source of vitamin D is through skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in sunlight. Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones and is associated with reduced incidence of several cancers and immune-mediated disorders. Read more
Understanding environmental effects on materials for quantum technology from first principles
The success and widespread use of the next generation of quantum technology will fundamentally depend on the materials used to make them. Read more

EPSRC DTP - Investigating AI's Potential in Facilitating Sustainable Material Selection
The fashion industry is one of the most resource-intensive sectors, significantly contributing to environmental degradation through excessive waste, high water consumption, and substantial greenhouse gas emissions (Riba et al., 2020; Saha et al., 2024). Read more
Climate change impacts on major sporting events
This project will assess the impact of increasing global temperatures on the viability of major sporting events. It will investigate how climate change may radically reshape the sporting calendar and require modifications to stadia using novel modelling applications of climate data. Read more
