Funded PhD Project (European/UK Students Only)
About the Project
The Centre for Advanced and Interdisciplinary Radiation Research (CAIRR) has a number of fully funded PhD scholarships available, drawing from physical and biological sciences, to deepen understanding of fundamental radiation-matter interactions and to apply that understanding to key problem domains, particularly the treatment of cancer.
Probing non-adiabatic dynamics in radiosensitisers
The goal of this research is to obtain a fundamental understanding of the non-adiabatic processes that occur during irradiation of radiosensitisers. In particular, ionization and fragmentation of these molecules will be simulated in the gas phase and in the presence of water to understand how the presence of an environment modifies the system’s response.
Academic requirements
A 2.1 UK Honours degree (or equivalent) in a relevant subject is required.
