Chemistry (pharmaceuticals) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 25 Chemistry (pharmaceuticals) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Mechanochemical Preparation of Biodegradable Pharmaceuticals

Twin-screw extrusion (TSE) has been demonstrated as an excellent means of industrialising mechanochemistry (instigation of a chemical reaction by mechanical energy, in the absence of solvents), overcoming the barriers involved in batch processing (such as ball milling) such as scalability and reaction temperature control.

Directed Co-Crystallisation of Pharmaceuticals: developing a predictive method for co-crystallisation

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
In this project, we propose to use a combination of computational and experimental techniques to develop a predictive method for co-crystallisation. Read more

Discovery of novel pharmaceuticals from marine and desert microorganisms

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Rational Control of Crystal Morphology

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
The external shape of crystalline particles (called morphology) is of paramount importance in a wide range of applications, in particular pharmaceuticals and pigments. Read more

Self funded PhD in Biology: Novel approaches for valorisation of seaweed biomass

Lead Supervisor. Dr T Tonon (Department of Biology). Co-Supervisor. Dr Leonardo Gomez (Department of Biology). Context. Seaweeds are crucial to maintain biodiversity in coastal environments and to support livelihood of some coastal communities. Read more

Particle properties by design

  Research Group: School of Chemical and Process Engineering
This interdisciplinary project presents an exciting opportunity for an ambitious scientist or engineer to work across the boundaries of chemistry, physics and engineering, with opportunities to develop a broad portfolio of skills. Read more

Development of new retrosynthetic disconnections through radical-nucleophilic substitution

Background. Nucleophilic substitution is arguably the most important class of reaction in organic synthesis. Indeed, these reactions are used every day to synthesise new pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers and natural products. Read more

Alkali Metal Mediation (AMM) in Chemical Manufacture and Fuel Technology

Applications are invited for a fully funded 36-month PhD studentship sponsored by Innospec Limited, a global specialty chemicals company focused on bringing innovative new technologies to the market to start in October 2024. Read more

Computational Modelling of Organometallic Reactivity and Catalysis

A PhD position is available in the group of Prof. Stuart Macgregor to work on the computational modelling of organometallic reactivity and catalysis. Read more

Rational Development of Organocaesium Chemistry

Applications are invited for a fully funded 42-month PhD studentship sponsored by the Leverhulme Trust to start in October 2024. Numerous chemicals including manufactured agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and natural products are made using organolithium reagents. Read more
