Chemistry (medical devices) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 23 Chemistry (medical devices) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Last chance to apply

Elucidating the role of lipids in fibrotic capsule formation at the surface of implanted medical devices.

Implanted medical devices are crucial in healthcare, valued at around £400 billion globally, however there is a high failure rate, often due to the foreign body reaction, where a fibrotic capsule forms around the implant with associated inflammation, loosening and infection. Read more

Self-regulating, self-cleaning biomaterials

A major problem associated with medical devices is infection. With infection rates of approaching 100% in some devices, ways to prevent formation of bacterial biofilm on medical device surfaces are urgently required. Read more

Mid-infrared hollow-core fibre and laser development for environmental monitoring, non-invasive surgery and advanced manufacturing

In this project we will develop hollow-core optical fibres (HCFs) for mid-infrared laser delivery. HCFs offer a radically new solution for laser delivery as they guide light in a gas-filled core, instead of the glass in conventional optical fibres. Read more

High-Resolution Imaging of Green Conjugated Polymers

High-Resolution Imaging of Green Conjugated Polymers. A fully funded 3.5 years PhD position in the field of experimental nanoscience at surfaces and molecular imaging of conjugated polymers is available in the group of Prof. Read more

Novel subsurface Raman microscopy technologies to enable the development of next-generation drug and implant therapies

Start date. September 2024. Duration. 3.5 years. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful label-free analytical technique that measures the molecular composition of tissue by using light to excite molecular vibrations in the sample and generate Raman scattered photons. Read more

CDT-QTE: Quantum Spin Dynamics and How to Make it Faster

Supervisory Team: Prof Ilya Kuprov, Dr Marina Carravetta. Project description: This project is part of the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Quantum Technology Engineering at the University of Southampton. Read more

Microneedle delivery systems for minimally-invasive patient diagnosis/monitoring

In this project, a novel type of integrated system will be investigated that will by-pass the skin barrier. On its surface will be multiple microscopic needles that pierce the skin without causing any pain – the sensation is said to feel like a cat’s tongue or sharkskin. Read more

EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training - 4 Year PhD Studentships

The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) is the main UK government agency for funding research and training in engineering and the physical sciences, investing more than £800 million a year in a broad range of subjects - from mathematics to materials science, and from information technology to structural engineering. Read more

PhD Project: 3D-Printed Micro-Robots for Medical Applications - (ENG 1726)

Applications are invited for a PhD project within the Faculty of Engineering, in the Centre for Additive Manufacturing research group (CfAM, http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/research/groups/cfam/index.aspx) at the University of Nottingham. Read more
