Optimisation of Batch Reactive Distillation Process

  Research Group: Water Engineering and Natural Environment
Although the batch reactive distillation process outperforms traditional reactor-distillation processes, due to simultaneous reaction and separation of products for many reaction systems, synthesis of many esters obtained via esterification with alcohols (such as methanol, ethanol) are still challenging.

Novel strategy for treatment of chronic wounds via multi-functional liposomal nanocarriers

  Research Group: Medicines Development and Pharmaceutical Sciences
A confounding issue of non-healing skin wounds is the presence of pathogenic bacteria, that protect themselves from conventional antibiotic treatments by encasing themselves within protective shields (biofilms). Read more

New Drugs for Brain Tumours: Prodrugs of Diazopropyne

  Research Group: Medicines Development and Pharmaceutical Sciences
The propargyl group, introduced to temozolomide-like drugs for brain tumours by our colleagues in Nottingham, shows considerable pre-clinical promise and… Read more

New Drugs for Brain Tumours: A Locoregional Implant Brain Tumours

  Research Group: Medicines Development and Pharmaceutical Sciences
Next-generation temozolomide derivatives for the treatment of high-grade glioma have been developed at the University of Bradford. Read more

Neuronal control of appetite: investigating the role of the extracellular matrix in controlling neuronal activity in the hypothalamus

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Appetite regulation is complex, and its dysregulation has serious implications for health, being observed in multiple conditions e.g., obesity, anorexia, and type 2 diabetes. Read more

Nanoparticle synthesis and application in magnetic field hyperthermia for cancer therapy

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Magnetic field hyperthermia (MFH) is currently undergoing clinical trials for use in humans. The research to date has shown the effectiveness of the approach in cells and animal models and the initial results from human trials are promising. Read more

Nanomaterials as White Light Emitters for Low Cost Lighting

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
White-light emission (WLE) from semiconductor nanostructures is presently a research area of intense interest especially where the primary objective is to replace conventional light sources by environmentally friendly materials in order to minimize energy costs and therefore the global energy consumption for lighting. Read more

Nano-particle enhanced Additive Manufacturing of aluminum alloys

Additive manufacturing is rapidly developing manufacturing concept; however, metal additive manufacturing has seen numerous inconsistencies regarding methods of controlling and standardizing the performance of the deposits from the metal additive manufacturing process. Read more

Microbiology of Hip Arthroplasty Cements

  Research Group: Centre for Skin Sciences
Replacement hip and knee arthroplasties are common surgeries, with 31,000 hip and 90,000 knee replacements performed in England in 2020-21. Read more

Leveraging AI and Machine Learning to Develop an Efficient Smart Contract Vulnerability Detection Method

In recent years, blockchain technology has become a source of new hope with its broad spectrum of applications, e.g., finance, health care, supply-chain management or intrusion detection, to name a few. Read more

Islamophobia in Higher Education

  Research Group: Criminology and Sociology
Islamophobia has now arguably become the most ‘acceptable’ form of racism. It has permeated across the consciousness of society impacting all institutions – including academia (Chaudry, 2022). Read more

Investigation of the extracellular matrix as a regulator of Parkinson’s progression

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Parkinson’s is the 2nd most common neurodegenerative disease, affecting around 1 in 20 people aged over 65. In the UK, the number of affected people is set to rise by 50% over the next 50 years due to ageing populations. Read more

Investigation of antagonism of multiple RGD-binding integrins as a therapeutic strategy in advanced head and neck cancer

  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Background. The integrins are a family of transmembrane receptors which mediate cell-cell and cell-ECM adhesion, and signalling across the cell membrane involved in pathways controlling cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, cell survival and apoptosis. Read more
