UKRI AI Centre for Doctoral Training in Biomedical Innovation (AI4BI CDT)
Artificial intelligence has immense potential to tackle major global health challenges, optimise healthcare systems, and improve patient outcomes. Read more
Data-Driven Computational Sensing and Imaging
Today's state-of-the-art imaging and sensing rely as much on computation as they do on sensor hardware. Furthermore, computational sensing and imaging is increasingly exploiting data-driven and machine learning solutions to enhance performance and develop novel hardware/software co-designed sensing systems.

Adaptive and smart structures for operational variability and life extension
This project aims to investigate the capabilities of adaptive structures that change their geometry and mechanical properties to accommodate operational loading and extend their lifespan, thereby supporting sustainable infrastructure and a circular economy. Read more
Vibration data and underlying physics for adaptive structural health monitoring
In the context of long-term monitoring applications, there are numerous structural states that exhibit similar behavior but cannot be generalized with a single model (whether data- or physics-based) due to the inherent time-variant nature of structural evolution. Read more
