Applications are invited for a three-year Postgraduate studentship, supported by Help Harry Help Others (HHHO) and the College of Health and Life Sciences, to be undertaken within the Artificial Intelligence in Paediatric Neuroimaging (AIPNI) Research Group at Aston University. Read more
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a non-invasive technique commonly used to measure brain activity. In this project, we aim at using EEG Biofeedback (brain-computer interface (BCI)) for improving cognitive performance (e.g. Read more
This project aims to enhance the quality of life of patients with amputees, spinal cord injury, stroke and brain injury by developing advanced control strategies for artificial limbs. Read more
A brain-computer interface (BCI) provides a direct communication pathway between a human brain and an external device. Using appropriate sensors and data processing algorithms, a BCI maps patterns of brain activity associated with a volitional thought onto signals suitable for communication and control. Read more
The Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Dundee is inviting applications for a self-funded PhD research project under the supervision of Dr Alessandro Perelli. Read more
HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) are an emergent class of epigenetic modifying agent (EMA), with multi-modal mechanisms-of-action in both tumour and tumour microenvironment (TME). This project aims to understand how these drugs modulate efficacy of 5-FU-based chemotherapy to counteract transcriptional plasticity and immune evasion that underpins emergence of treatment resistance. Read more
We will investigate biology driving the aggressive features of Poor Outcome Triple Negative Breast Cancers (PO-TNBCs). PO-TNBCs possess the worst outcomes amongst all breast cancers, with high rates of metastases and chemoresistance. Read more
Cancer treatment effects on patient survival can be estimated in population-based observational cancer audit datasets. For certain patient groups, these estimates could be their only treatment evidence-base. Read more
Self funded project October 2022 / January 2023 start, 3 / 3.5 years duration. Cancer is the greatest cause of premature death in the UK, with around 370,000 new cases and 165,000 lives lost per annum. Read more
Understanding the haemodynamic properties in coronary artery and renal dialysis venous access (DVA) in patients will help to improve the performance and longevity of renal DVA and coronary stent which underpins the life supporting haemodialysis techniques. Read more
Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) is a radically new type of radiotherapy that has the potential to improve the precision and targeting of radiotherapy leading to fewer side effects, faster recovery and better outcomes for patients. Read more
FLASH-RT entails delivering a high dose over a sub-second timescale and there have been experiments on animals which indicate cancerous regions suffer lethal… Read more
A major challenge facing dementia research is identifying the earliest indicators of clinically-significant cognitive decline. This research project will be linked to the newly established Memory Assessment & Cognitive Ageing Research Unit (MACARU), led by the primary supervisor. Read more
