Biological Sciences PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students in Southampton

We have 28 Biological Sciences PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students in Southampton

Laser-based fabrication of medical diagnostic devices in paper

The aim of the project is to use a laser-based direct-writing technique developed and patented by our group to pattern microfluidic devices in paper for the creation of the diagnostic sensors or tests. . Read more

AI-enhanced high-fidelity cardiovascular modelling

  Research Group: Bioengineering
Are you interested in exploring cardiovascular biomechanics and machine learning in biomedical applications? Be part of a research that merges AI-based medical image processing and multiphysics cardiovascular modelling towards a better understanding of heart diseases and developing patient-specific treatment options. Read more

Machine Learning on Health Data from Wearables

Supervisory Team. Dr Zhiwu Huang, Dr Kate Farrahi. This PhD project focuses on developing advanced machine learning methods to transform wearable biosignal data, like heart rate, activity levels, and sleep patterns, into actionable health insights. Read more

Combining DNA with antibodies for affordable measurement of clinically critical biomarker panels

Supervisory Team. Dr Al Edwards, Dr Andres Vallejo Pulido, Dr Hannah Schiff. Clinical diagnostic testing continues to grow, but we still lack accessible test technology, especially for measuring panels of important biomarkers found in blood. . Read more

Investigating the influence of structural openings on blast wave propagation and human injury risk

Supervisory Team: Dr Jack Denny; Prof Steeve Chung Kim Yuen (University of Cape Town). Project description. This PhD offers you the opportunity to tackle the real-world challenge of developing strategies to protect buildings and their occupants from explosions. Read more

Hypoxic-Ischaemic Encephalopathy early detection by using Image Analysis of MRI Susceptibility Weighted Imaging

Hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) affects babies' brains during the childbirth due to shortages of oxygen. Using computer vision and machine learning techniques, HIE disease is diagnosed much earlier than two years which is the current normal practice in hospitals. Read more

Investigating the effects of structural openings on blast wave propagation and human injury risk

Co Supervisor. Prof Steeve Chung Kim Yuen, University of Cape Town. This PhD project offers you the opportunity to undertake cutting edge blast engineering research to inform the development of strategies to protect buildings and their occupants from the threat of explosions in built up areas. Read more

SustAI CDT - The URKI AI Centre Doctoral Training in AI for Sustainability is now recruiting for September 2025

Environmental sustainability is one of the greatest challenges the world is facing, with many organisations and countries including the UK setting ambitious targets to reduce emissions and waste and increase renewable energy production. Read more

Investigation of non-thermal plasma for CO2 conversion in Space In-situ Resource Utilisation

Supervisory Team: Min Kwan Kim (80%) / Alexander Wittig (20%). PhD Supervisor: Min Kwan Kim. Project description. Water, oxygen, and fuel are essential resources for future human missions to Mars, crucial for sustaining astronaut life and ensuring a safe return journey to Earth. Read more
