A 3-year PhD Studentship funded by Great Ormond Street Children’s Charity is available in the Population, Policy and Practice Research and Teaching Department, UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health (GOS ICH). Read more
Relational continuity of care
Understanding relational continuity of care. There is no funding for this project. It is for self-funded students. Background. Relational continuity of care is ongoing affiliation between clinician and a patient across many illness episodes. Read more
Causal AI using EHR data for clinical decision support (4-year doctoral studentship, Sep 22 start)
The following doctoral studentship is available at Queen Mary University of London in partnership with. Canon Medical Research Europe. Read more
Health 4.0: Improving Resilience of Future Healthcare Systems through Digitalisation and Industry 4.0 Base Technologies
Today’s complex healthcare networks are plagued by problems such as high cost, varying levels of customer satisfaction, and the inability of network administrators to respond effectively to short-term variations in operations and disruptions (planned or unplanned). Read more
Data driven solutions to improving cancer diagnosis
This is a two prong project. The student will develop skills running small clinical studies that implement data-driven prediction algorithms to identify and test for cancer people who are at an increased risk. Read more
Examining the mechanisms that cause cardiovascular disease by studying the heart or adipose tissue
Heart failure has a serious impact on our society and once diagnosed has a poor survival rate. In the United Kingdom, there are about 1.5 million people living with the after-effects of a heart attack. Read more
Applied AI in Healthcare
Overview. The aim is to create a successful Artificial Intelligence (AI) implementation and, through that, gain a better understanding of what makes a successful AI implementation in the relevant healthcare problem area. Read more
Adverse health, neurodevelopmental and educational outcomes in offspring following in utero exposure to maternal medication
Background. Pregnancy is a vulnerable period when the foetus undergoes rapid development; therefore, exposure to adverse risk factors can have lifelong implications. Read more
Conversation analysis of health communication
Good communication can enhance health outcomes. In order to optimise health communication in different settings it is important to understand what interactional techniques are used, and which techniques work well and less well. Read more
The application of Generative Adversarial Networks and XR technology to enhance simulation suites for medical training
The University of Salford has state of the art healthcare teaching facilities and simulation suites emulating modern hospital environments with real beds, medical equipment, advanced manikins, and props. Read more
Dissecting the molecular mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens
Antibiotics make possible the treatment and cure of life-threatening bacterial infections. Since their introduction in the middle years of the 20th Century, they have added ~10 years to the human lifespan, and have become a cornerstone of modern medicine. Read more
Detecting pain in human expressions
Pain signals threat, and motivates people to engage in protective behaviours. Pain also has a wider social function, in that it elicits helping responses from others. Read more
Very preterm infants’ day-to-day interactions with caregivers: A data-driven approach to investigate the role of short-term processes in promoting social learning
Overview. Infants born very preterm are at risk of cognitive difficulties. We plan to use intensive data collection methods to understand how daily social interactions between infants and their caregivers shape the development of learning skills. Read more
