Chemical kinetics of interstellar and planetary atmospheres
Research Group:
School of Chemistry
The Atmospheric, Planetary and Theoretical Chemistry (APTC) research group within the School of Chemistry are pleased to advertise one PhD studentship, fully-funded by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), in the general area of astrochemistry. Read more
Industrial Doctoral Landscape Award (PhD studentship): Utilising Graph-based Machine Leaning for Impact Sensitivity Prediction for Energetic Materials
Energetic Materials (explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics and gas generators) are used in a broad range of pubic and private sector applications. Read more
PhD studentship – Anti-crystal engineering to prevent drug induced nephrotoxicity
Award summary . 100% of home tuition fees paid and an annual stipend (living expenses) of £18,622. . Overview . Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is often diagnosed late, is ineffectively managed and has been recognised as a condition of global concern—we want to stop it from happening in the first place. Read more
Microbial Induced Electrochemistry at the Local Site and Single Cell Level
Microbial Induced Corrosion (MIC) is a serious economic problem with an estimate worldwide cost of $113 Bn every year. MIC impacts a very wide range of industries, from power plants to construction, and even the health of humans with implants or protheses. Read more
Ultrafast dynamics of dissociative ionisation
Nottingham Ultrafast Reaction Dynamics research group is looking for a PhD student to develop new instrumentation to measure correlated electron-ion dynamics in the gas phase. Read more
Machine learning atomistic modelling of Li-ion and Na-ion battery anodes with accurate treatment of long-range interactions
Background. Lithium-ion batteries are essential to today's energy and mobility systems but face safety and raw material availability challenges as production rises. Read more
PhD studentship: Investigating Confined Molecular Transport for Next-Gen Fluidic Innovations (Students World-wide)
Award Summary. 100% fees covered, and a minimum tax-free annual living allowance of £19,237 (2024/25 UKRI rate). Additional project costs will also be provided. Read more
PhD in Chemistry:Sustainable adipic acid synthesis, from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), using redox paired nanoparticles, supported by an artificial intelligence approach: EPSRC IDLA PhD
The aim of the Industrial Doctoral Landscape Award (IDLA) PhD studentship, jointly sponsored by EPSRC and bp, is to provide a sustainable approach for adipic acid production, using 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) a renewable biomass feedstock. Read more
Bioelectrochemical synapse-like communication in bacteria
The human body consists of ~1013 human cells and nearly equal number of bacterial cells. These bacteria impact human heath, physiology and even psychology. Read more
Novel photoswitches for energy storage
This project will focus on the development of novel photoswitches for converting solar energy into heat storage with on-demand release. . Read more
Advanced materials for catalysis and metamaterials
In this project you will explore the fabrication of advanced materials for both catalysis and optical metamaterial applications. The 3D nanostructuring of materials such as metals has been established as a versatile route to new functional materials with enhanced electronic, optical and catalytic activity. Read more
PhD in Electronic and Electrical Engineering - MEMS Gravity Gradiometers
Start date. 01 October 2025. Glasgow has pioneered the use of MEMS devices for the measurement of gravity after demonstrating the first gravimeter that could measure the Earth tides (the gravitational force of the moon orbiting the earth) using a MEMS devices [1][2]. Read more
PhD in Electronics and Electrical Engineering - Guiding and Trapping Cold Atoms using Photonic Integrated Circuits
Start date. 01 October 2025 (flexible). Cold atoms are produced by shining laser light of specific wavelengths onto atoms so that the momentum of the absorbed photons slows the atoms. Read more
Photocatalytic Conversion of Carbon Dioxide to Renewable Chemicals and Fuels
Achievement of Net Zero in chemicals and fuels industries is crucial for mitigation of climate change effect and it is dependent on development and implementation of efficient technologies for CO. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) Tailoring Functional Mucoadhesive Polymer Gel in Oral Cancer Therapy; A Milder Approach
Despite significant advances in cancer therapeutics, improving the prognosis of late-stage oral cancer remains challenging. Read more
