Funded PhD SWBio DTP- The role of endophytic entomopathogenic fungi on pest-host-parasitoid interactions: a chemical ecology perspective
Host institution. Rothamsted Research (Harpenden) Submit applications to this project to University of Bristol. Project description. Read more
Flexible Iterative Learning Control: Enabling Trial-Variant Learning for Real-World Applications
This PhD project aims to advance iterative learning control (ILC) by overcoming the limitation of requiring identical references in each trial, a constraint that can be impractical for many real-world applications. Read more
Decentralised and Distributed Active Noise and Vibration Control
The main aim of this research project is to develop active noise and vibration control systems for large-scale industrial installations, that overcome challenges of practical system integration through intelligent algorithm design. . Read more
User-centred Assistance Control in Physical Human-Robot Collaboration: A Predictive Model-Based Approach
In the realm of human-robot collaboration, the precise recognition of human intentions is pivotal for robots to understand user needs and offer natural, effective assistance. Read more
Optogenetic Control of Texture Perception in the Visual Cortex
Supervisors. Prof. Andrew Benucci. Studentship Funding. Name. SBBS Studentship. Funder. School of Biological and Behavioural Sciences (SBBS) at QMUL. Read more

Building synthetic cells to study mechanical processes in zebrafish development
A long-standing goal is to identify the roles of mechanical forces and cell material properties in regulating essential processes during development, including tissue morphogenesis, cell migration and cell fate specification [1]. Read more
Integration of localized electrically deciphered epigenetic profiles for enhanced stem cell therapy
One fully funded Frederick E Hopper full-time PhD scholarship is available in the School of Dentistry for a start in October 2025. Read more
Flexible and Intent-Aware Exoskeleton for Gait Assistance
Gait deficits affect millions of individuals worldwide due to various conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, and age-related mobility issues. Read more
