Quantum machine learning for communication network optimization and security
Post summary. Applications are invited for a PhD position funded by WIT. The candidate is expected to be highly self-motivated, and willing to work in future emerging topics in Quantum Technology. Read more
Development of a patient model for real-time MRI guided radiotherapy of pancreas and liver cancer
Full details of this project proposal can be found at. icr.ac.uk/phds. Project background. Despite tremendous technical advances of radiotherapy within the past decades, the clinical outcome of patients with pancreatic/liver cancer is poor. Read more
In situ gas analysis in interim spent fuel containers
Research Group:
The University of Manchester Projects
This project will primarily be based at The University of Manchester. Interim dry storage is being proposed or considered for a large part of the UK’s spent fuel inventory. Read more
EPSRC DTP studentship: Inkjet-printed Filter-less narrowband colloidal Quantum Dot photodetectors and image sensors (IFQD)
In the foreseeable future, 'eye-like' or 'skin-like' soft image sensors are expected to play essential roles in our daily life. Read more
Advanced data-driven prognostics for improved operation and maintenance recommendations
EngD in the new EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Wind and Marine Energy Systems and Structures at the University of Strathclyde collaborating with Renewable Energy Systems (RES). Read more
Modelling the unique viscoelastic properties of graphene oxide dispersions and their flow phenomena
Graphene oxide (GO) dispersions in water form a strongly interacting fluid-particle system. The GO flakes, which are 1 nm thick and have an aspect ratio of 100 – 10000, interact with both the water and each other through strong hydrogen bonding and electrostatic forces. Read more
Nanomaterials for targeted cancer imaging and therapy - (ENG 1524)
Funded 3-year PhD studentship, Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham. Supervisory team. Dr Lyudmila Turyanska, Dr Tracey Bradshaw, Prof Neil R Thomas. Read more
Fully funded PhD studentship at the Centre for Doctoral Training in Sustainable Hydrogen – Composite membranes for hydrogen purification - (ENG 1541)
Project description. Hydrogen is a high quality and clean energy carrier. Currently, the majority of hydrogen is produced by steam-methane reforming followed by a water-gas shift reaction whilst bio-hydrogen production has also been increasing. Read more
Spray-On Solar Cells: Scalable Additive Manufacturing of Flexible Perovskite Photovoltaics
Aim. Renewable energy technology is usually confined to utility scale, with large and costly installations. If we are to work towards the decarbonisation of the UK economy and bring about the “democratisation of green energy”, we need to make solar cells ubiquitous in our daily lives. Read more
PhD studentship in experimental biophysics: A DNA-based B cell receptor to investigate a role for mechanical forces in B cell activation
During an immune response, B cells become activated to produce antibodies that neutralise pathogens and target them for destruction. Read more
