Development of theoretical model of chemotaxis and the product testing in realistic physiological scenarios

A fully sponsored studentship to work on the modelling of the diffusion and penetration of chemotactic polymersomes in different organs using both computational fluid dynamics and brownian dynamics algorithms. The project will involve both the development of theoretical model of chemotaxis as well as their implementation in realistic physiological scenarios.
Interested candidates should contact Prof Giuseppe Battaglia ([Email Address Removed] ) with a degree transcript and a motivation letter expressing interest in this project. Informal inquiries are encouraged. The applicants should have, or be expecting to achieve, a first or upper second class Honours degree or equivalent in Physics, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering , Bioengineering or equivalent.
Applications will be accepted until 30 June 2018 but the position will be filled as soon as a suitable candidate has been identified.
