Chemical modification of mRNA for enhanced translation
mRNA vaccines have emerged as a new modality for preventing infectious diseases and treating cancer. This is due to their ability to rapidly produce specific proteins inside cells in a programmable manner. Read more
Non-contact measurements of thin catalytic membranes with ultrasonics
Roll-to-roll (R2R) manufacturing is essential for large-scale production of thin membranes needed for green hydrogen and electric batteries. Read more
Towards in silico selection of interfacial actives: Discovery of new corrosion inhibitors for high value coating formulations
The goal is to discover new corrosion inhibitors that can be added to coatings for protection of metallic infrastructure. Initially, you will quantify two key performance indicators for candidate molecules, i.e., corrosion reduction and diffusion through the coating matrix. Read more
Mechanistic modelling of hydrogen-material interactions
Oxford’s Mechanics of Materials Lab is seeking a PhD (DPhil) student to develop a new generation of mechanistic models to understand the fatigue crack initiation behaviour of metals in hydrogen environments. Read more
Accelerated electrocatalyst design using artificial intelligence
This project focuses on developing sustainable electrocatalysts for ammonia synthesis using artificial intelligence (AI). Read more
Intelligent Materials Health Monitoring: Utilising Machine Learning to Ensure the Long-term Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells
Solar energy is a cornerstone of Net-Zero. Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) are promising candidates for next-generation solar panels. Read more
Joining the Dots between AI, Machine Learning and Materials Advances in Green Technologies
In collaboration with Johnson Matthey Technology Centre you will research/design workflows and digital tools to establish/evaluate links between ionomer distributions in catalyst layers (CL) and performance in fuel cells. Read more
High-throughput characterisation and inline process monitoring of 2D semiconductor films
The project aim is to support the industrial translation of emerging ultrathin 2D semiconductor materials by developing smart metrology and best-practice approaches to fingerprint and monitor material quality characteristics across entire process pathways. Read more
