Funded PhD Project (European/UK Students Only)
About the Project
This is an inter-disciplinary PhD that involves the development of a healthcare technology that cuts across Biological, Biomedical Sciences and Medical Engineering. This project will involve an interdisciplinary collaboration between the Centre for Research in Biosciences at UWE Bristol and Creo Medical Ltd, a manufacturer and provider of healthcare technologies.
The successful candidate will develop expertise in cell biology, biofilm research, antimicrobials and medical physics and engineering. This PhD opportunity will provide full costs of tuition fees, research consumables and stipend for three and half years. The successful candidate will be primarily based at the Centre for Research in Biosciences at UWE Bristol, but will also spend time with Creo Medical Ltd located at Bath and Chepstow, accessing medical engineering facilities and expertise.
Creo Medical are experienced in designing and developing electromagnetic irradiating instrumentation, including radio frequency (RF) and microwave energy sources, and antenna structures for efficiently coupling this energy into biological tissue. This research will focus on the investigation of radio wave (KHz), microwave (MHz) and millimetre wave (GHz) technology within the field of Biomedical Sciences and Health Technology, to inform the generation of new health technologies for the treatment of disease in the medium term.
