Identifying novel inflammatory pathways and using them to develop new therapeutics

We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in cardiovascular immunology, chronic inflammatory diseases (e.g., Atherosclerosis, psoriasis, other diseases with a chronic inflammatory component) drug discovery/ development of novel therapeutics, to join the Cardiovascular Immunology group led by Prof Ed Rainger. Read more

Discovery of Novel Cancer Immunotherapeutic Agents

Summary. Although cancer therapeutics, mainly chemotherapy and radiotherapy, have been extremely useful in the treatment of cancer, this disease is still associated with high morbidity and mortality. Read more

Discovery of New Treatments for Parkinson’s disease

Summary. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurological disease in the world. Current PD therapies and medical interventions are very limited and only address the symptoms of this disease highlighting the need for new and effective treatments for this disease. Read more

Investigating the impact of inflammation on cardiovascular disease

We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in cardiovascular inflammation and immune-mediated chronic inflammatory diseases to join the group of Dr Asif Iqbal (Dr Asif Iqbal - Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences - University of Birmingham). Read more

Enhanced spectroscopy-based in-situ environmental monitoring: development of novel materials and machine learning techniques

Self funded 3.5 year PhD in Engineering. Project Summary. Water and soil health has been jeopardized globally by various types of contaminants, posing significant threats to the biodiversity and food security. Read more

PhD in Chemistry: Structural effects in alternating biodegradable polymers

Dr Alison Paul Dr Alison Paul - People - Cardiff University is looking for a PhD student to join the Soft Matter Research Group for a project on “Structural effects in alternating biodegradable polymers”. Read more

Three-Dimensional Microfluidics for High Throughput Reactions and Bioassays

High-throughput reactions and bioassays allow cost-effective testing of large libraries of bio/chemical molecules for drug discovery, disease diagnosis, and industrial biotechnology. Read more

Biosensor for Point-of-Care DNA Detection

DNA detection is needed for a range of applications including clinical diagnostics and environmental monitoring. As target DNA is often present in very low concentrations, it is typically amplified using methods such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) [1], before detection. Read more

Novel High-Performance Coatings- Product and Process Development

Coatings are used for a wide range of applications with formulations developed or adapted according to the needs specific to the surfaces they are used on- smoothness, brightness, scratch resistance are among these. Read more

Taking Light Induced Electron Paramagnetic Resonance In Cell for Biological Structural Determination

Studying the structure of proteins and other biological systems is an important step in understanding their function. Most structural studies are conducted in environments that are far away from native conditions, such as those found inside a cell. Read more

Fundamental Electromagnetics: Foundational Theories of Electricity and Magnetism relating to Charged Particle Interactions

Applications are invited for a self-funded PhD. Charged particle dynamics (also known as charged particle optics) is concerned with the interactions of charged particles (e.g., electrons, protons, ions) within an electric and/or magnetic field. Read more

Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

Applications are invited for a self-funded PhD. In this PhD project you will integrate surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with an LFI platform for POC diagnostics using size-controlled Raman reporter-tagged gold nanoparticle clusters. Read more

Smart Surfaces for Anti-Scaling

Scaling and mineral deposits that occur due to dissolved materials in water is a problem in many industrial applications. How to remove this scaling without the use of harsh chemicals or methods to prevent it is crucial importance to both the environment and the economy. Read more

Repurposing and enriching cardiovascular risk prediction model to identify people at risk of cancer – UCL (part of Health Data Research UK’s Big Data for Complex Disease Driver Programme)

Risk-stratified management of cardiovascular disease (CVD), where people without established disease receive preventative interventions and monitoring based on their 10-years predicted risk, has been highly successful to ensure healthcare resources are allocated to those most likely to benefit. Read more

Miniature Mass Spectrometry

Mass spectrometry (MS) and ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) are versatile analytical techniques that allow general-purpose chemical detection and measurement. Read more

Molecular characterisation of a novel transporter for the atypical antipsychotic clozapine

Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric illness affecting about 24 million people worldwide. Schizophrenia can have a devastating effect on a patient’s life and is associated with increased mortality, with life expectancy reduced on average by 15 years compared to that of the general population. Read more

School of Law - PhD opportunities available

The University of Aberdeen is one of four ancient universities of Scotland. Law was a founding discipline when the University was established in 1495. Read more

Data-driven modelling of energy demands in buildings

Project Summary. 3.5 years full time, start date 1st October 23. Description of Project. We seek to recruit a highly motivated PhD researcher with technical ability to conduct research in the area of modelling energy demand in buildings. Read more
