Next-generation temozolomide derivatives for the treatment of high-grade glioma have been developed at the University of Bradford. Read more

Neuronal control of appetite: investigating the role of the extracellular matrix in controlling neuronal activity in the hypothalamus

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Appetite regulation is complex, and its dysregulation has serious implications for health, being observed in multiple conditions e.g., obesity, anorexia, and type 2 diabetes. Read more

Microbiology of Hip Arthroplasty Cements

  Research Group: Centre for Skin Sciences
Replacement hip and knee arthroplasties are common surgeries, with 31,000 hip and 90,000 knee replacements performed in England in 2020-21. Read more

Investigation of the extracellular matrix as a regulator of Parkinson’s progression

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Parkinson’s is the 2nd most common neurodegenerative disease, affecting around 1 in 20 people aged over 65. In the UK, the number of affected people is set to rise by 50% over the next 50 years due to ageing populations. Read more

Climate change resilience of global supply chains

  Research Group: School of Management
Climate change is posing significant challenges to global supply chains that they need to respond to multifaceted challenges. Supply chains need to be resilient to climate-change related disruptions such as floods, draughts, hurricanes, fires, and extreme temperatures (Ali et al., 2023). Read more

Statistical inference for epidemics models

Mathematical models have been established as an important tool for capturing the features that drive the spread of a disease, predicting the progression of an epidemic and guiding the development of effective control strategies to prevent potential outbreaks. Read more

Exploring Viral Nucleic Acid Machinery via Cryo Electron Microscopy to Advance Biomedicine

Viruses, these tiny but potent life forms, are all around us, infecting various organisms and directly affecting human health. Although in most cases, viral infection is not life threatening, in the minority of cases it leads to long-term disorders including cancer. Read more

Gesture-Agnostic Radar-Based Hand Tracking for VR/AR Systems

Supervisory Team:  Dr Shelly Vishwakarma. Project description. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are rapidly becoming integral to our digital experiences, necessitating the need for interfaces that are both non-intrusive and safeguard user privacy. Read more
