Chemistry in planet-forming regions revealed by ALMA
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is a telescope in Chile that observes the universe at millimeter wavelengths. Read more
Silica Coated Gold Nanorods for Combined Photothermal Treatment
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
Gold nanoparticle exhibit strong optical absorption due to their localised surface plasmon resonance (SPR). All almost all the energy absorbed at the SPR is converted into heat. Read more
Probing Viral Receptor-Glycan Interactions using Polyvalent Multifunctional Glycan-Nanoparticle
Research Group:
School of Chemistry
Multivalent viral receptor-glycan interactions are central to viral infection and immune response regulation. However, the underpinning structural mechanisms are often poorly understood, due to a lack of effective probes for such complex, multimeric and flexible proteins. Read more

Novel nanoparticle-loaded formulations to enhance the locoregional delivery of anticancer drugs to brain tumours
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the deadliest form of primary brain tumour with an extremely poor survival duration of less than 15 months. Read more
Reducing variation in hip replacement outcomes: understanding psoas tendon impingement
Research Group:
School of Mechanical Engineering
Total hip replacement (THR) is a successful operation but the number of devices requiring revision is continuing to rise. Read more
Graduate Teaching Assistant role and fully funded PhD Scholarship

Optimisation of loose ring oil lift using combined numerical experimental methods
Research Group:
School of Mechanical Engineering
Due to the environmental and economic limitations, low friction polymer materials able to withstand high loadings and many years of continuous operation are to be used in many applications such as industrial pumps. Read more
Sustainable compostable packaging formed from all natural materials
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
We live in a throw-away society in which we make, use, and dispose with detrimental effects to our environment and health, such as plastic contaminants in oceans and food chains. Read more
Environmentally-Friendly Piezoelectric Materials
Research Group:
School of Chemical and Process Engineering
This is an exciting opportunity to undertake an experimental materials science project in collaboration with an established University of Leeds spin-out company, aimed at developing new, environmentally-friendly piezoelectric materials for use in industrial applications at temperatures up to 600°C.

Are you looking for a PhD in structural and computational biology applied to drug development for human diseases?. Read more
How GABA neurones in the DVC control glucose metabolism
The Dorsal Vagal Complex (DVC) of the brain is an important regulator of glucose metabolism and food intake. The Nucleus of the Solitary Tract (NTS) in the DVC senses insulin and triggers a neuronal relay to decrease hepatic glucose production (HPG) in rodents. Read more
