Artificial intelligence techniques to speed up the realistic simulation and full waveform inversion of ground penetrating radar data.

Ground penetrating radars (GPR) are used in a many diverse applications. These range from near-surface geophysics investigations, concrete inspection, utility network detections, landmine detection and even planetary exploration using rovers on the Moon and Mars that utilise GPR technology.

Precision Medicine DTP - Exploring retinal biomarkers as a novel predictor of pregnancy complications including stillbirth

  Research Group: Centre for Cardiovascular Science
Background. Every 16 seconds one baby is stillborn. That amounts to more than two million stillborn babies globally every year. Stillbirths have long-lasting personal and psychological consequences for parents and families, as well as substantial costs for wider society. Read more

Precision Medicine DTP - Genetic colocalisation across disease to identify drug repurposing candidates and risk of patient co-morbidities

  Research Group: Centre for Inflammation Research
Background. Discoverying new drugs is expensive, time intensive and fraught with failure at all stages (1). An attractive alternative, with much lower costs and faster development timelines, is to find new applications for already approved drugs, a process known as drug repurposing or drug reallocation.

Precision Medicine DTP - Dissecting mitotic phosphatases network and the effect of molecular glues to combat cell proliferation

  Research Group: Institute of Cell Biology
Background. Many cancers are associated with an alteration in protein function and regulation. While protein phosphatases represent potential therapeutic targets because of their essential role in cell signalling, survival and cell division, they usually do not have any pockets for inhibitors.

Precision Medicine DTP - Could disrupted functional connectivity between the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex be an early marker of vascular cognitive impairment in dementia?

  Research Group: Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Additional supervisor. Prof Simon Hanslmayr [University of Glasgow]. Background. The healthy blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintains selective permeability and controls cerebral blood flow to ensure efficient energy supply, prompt waste removal, and balance chemical composition in the interstitial fluid.
