Controlling plasma chemistry of cold atmospheric-pressure air plasmas
Research Group:
Plasma and fusion science and technologies
Plasma technologies already form a key part of many of today’s multi-billion pound industries such as the nanoscale fabrication of microprocessors, production of solar cells and the deposition of advanced functional coatings. Read more
Using innovative microfluid technology to study infection dynamics in human lungs
Lung infections and diseases pose significant challenges to global health, impacting millions of individuals worldwide. Aspergillus, Cryptococcus, Pneumocystis, and endemic fungi are major pulmonary fungal pathogens that can result in life-threatening invasive diseases in immuno-compromised patients. Read more
Targeting the mechanism of small GTPase splice variant RAC1B using ligand design
RAC1 is a small GTPase protein that functions as a key signalling node downstream of various microenvironmental signalling pathways. Read more
Understanding the evolution of gene regulatory networks through biophysical modelling and machine learning
The ability to coordinate the expression of genes within a cell is at the heart of life. When and how much of a specific gene is turned into a protein is essential for organisms to respond to their environment and to manage resources. Read more
Peptide-mediated nanocarrier drug delivery for enhanced brain targeting and treatment of inflammation
This project involves the study of nanoparticles and drug delivery to the brain. The student would be required to make and characterise novel nanoparticles from special lipid molecules of various compositions more suitable for blood-brain barrier (BBB) targeting. Read more
Inducing ferroptotic death to kill cancer cells
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated necrotic cell death triggered by oxidative degradation of lipids in membrane bilayers and subsequent irreparable damages to the plasma membrane (1). Read more
Defining the molecular mechanisms of leukaemia chemotherapies
Chemotherapies are usually the backbone of cancer treatment for either curative or palliative patient care. Multiple therapies can be used for the same disease, with the choice of drug dependent on parameters such as the patient’s age and fitness. Read more
Identification of transcriptomic signatures of autism-like neurodevelopmental disorder
The overarching aim of this project is to define transcriptional patterns and identify new genetic elements essential for the correct development of the human brain. Read more
Acoustofluidics Manipulation of Cells and Tissue for Precision Biomedicine
EPSRC fully funded 3.5 year PhD starting January 2025. Description of Project. There is a critical need for faster diagnostics and more effective drug delivery systems in healthcare. Read more
For the 2024-2025 academic year, IDIBAPS is offering up to 5 fully funded PhD fellowships in biomedicine for young scientists
The August Pi i Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute, IDIBAPS is offering up to 5 PhD fellowships in biomedicine for talented young scientists from any nationality. Read more
LACI-Cog: A pilot randomized controlled trial of isosorbide mononitrate and cilostazol in patients with vascular cognitive impairment.
Based in the cerebral Small Vessel Disease research group of the University of Edinburgh and working closely with the NHS Scotland’s Neuroprogressive and… Read more
Advancing Drug Delivery and Gene Therapy for Regeneration and Repair of the Aging Cartilage (NDORMS-2025/12)
Drugs targeting biological drivers of aging face unique translational challenges. Read more
Osteogenic-angiogenic coupling in fracture repair - Why do some patients fail to heal? (NDORMS-2025/11)
This full-time DPhil post at the Botnar Institute will use cutting edge laboratory and computational methods to interrogate the mechanisms underlying failed repair following scaphoid fracture. Read more
Addressing Shoulder Pain: Single-cell led repurposing of injectables for subacromial impingement syndrome (NDORMS-2025/10)
This full-time DPhil post at the Botnar Institute will use cutting edge laboratory and computational methods to interrogate the mechanisms underlying shoulder pain. Read more
Causal inference from observational data: trials, real world evidence and genomics to triangulate the evidence (NDORMS-2025/9)
This project will involve the use of multiple methods and data assets to study the risk-benefit of medicines and/or medical devices. Read more
