Examining attitudes towards abstinence from alcohol in the UK: a multi-perspective investigation
Research Group:
Psychology
Alcohol remains the most significant drug of choice for citizens across the UK [1]. In 2021, 350 alcohol-specific deaths were registered in NI, one less than in 2020 when the highest number of alcohol-specific deaths was ever recorded in the region [2]. Read more
Biomass conversion to fine chemicals via photocatalysis processes
The conversion of biomass into value-added platform chemicals can greatly alleviate the reliance on fossil feedstock. Read more
The mechanism of the therapeutic potential of stem cell-derived Dendrobium Officinale sprouts (DOS) for gastric mucosa wound healing
Dendrobium Officinale (DO) is a traditional Chinese medicine for repairing gastrointestinal mucosa injuries. Plant stem cell-derived DO sprouts (SDO) exhibits more significant mucosa wound-healing effects than DO. Read more
Drug discovery leading to novel therapeutic avenues for the treatment of acute pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer
Acute pancreatitis is often a fatal human disease. The risk of developing pancreatic cancer is significantly increased in patients with chronic pancreatitis. Read more
P4. Green Polymers from Sugars towards Polyethylene-Like Materials (CSHP CDT)
Polymers are widespread in modern society as they produce light, strong, and cheap plastic materials, with an ever-increasing demand, which are critical to many technologies from consumer goods, electronics to healthcare. Read more

Viral-surface interactions studied by vibrational sum-frequency spectroscopy
The recent COVID-19 pandemic, and in particular fomite transmission of the virus, led to a lot of interest in how viral particles attached to surfaces, their survival times on different materials and how they transferred to hosts. Read more
Bioinspired magnetic microbes for treating metastatic breast cancer
There is an urgent need to develop new treatments for cancer, especially for those patients whose cancer keeps coming back or spreads to other parts of the body despite current treatments. Read more
Catalytic cascade reactions for sustainable chemicals
A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed, offering greater energy efficiency relative to non-catalytic pathways. Read more
Investigation of acrylate-NBE as photosensitive materials for the application in surface microfabrication
