Development of next generation electrosurgery electrode design via surface microtexturing

SELF FUNDED PROJECT. 3 years full time, start date 1st April, 1st July, 1st October 2024. Electrosurgery is a medical procedure that utilises an alternating and high frequency current (200kHz-3.3MHz) to either cut and/or coagulate tissues and achieve haemostasis. Read more

Cell-matrix interface engineering for regenerative medicine applications and disease modelling

Dr. Mahetab Amer is seeking motivated students with backgrounds in tissue engineering, cell biology, materials science, or related fields to join her dynamic, multidisciplinary research group at the Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine, University of Manchester. Read more

Optimizing phage-antibiotic-synergies to kill bacterial pathogens

Phage therapy, the use of viruses that only infect bacterial cells and kill them, is a promising potential solution to the antimicrobial resistance crisis that is threatening modern medicine1. Read more

Antisense technologies as potential treatments for Cushing’s disease

Cushing’s disease is a devastating condition caused by a pituitary corticotroph tumour that over-expresses the proopiomelanocortin gene (POMC) and secretes high levels of ACTH. Read more

Targeting the sweet tooth to curb population-wide sugar intake

Excess intake of dietary sugars are a major contributor to obesity, and type 2 diabetes and 82% of people state that taste is the major determinant of what they buy and eat. Read more

Driving phenotypic plasticity and metastasis in small cell lung cancer

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis. Underlying this aggressiveness is intra-tumoural heterogeneity driven by phenotypic plasticity wherein tumour cells transition from a neuroendocrine (NE) to a non-neuroendocrine (non-NE) phenotype. Read more

Inducing ferroptotic death to kill cancer cells

Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated necrotic cell death triggered by oxidative degradation of lipids in membrane bilayers and subsequent irreparable damages to the plasma membrane (1). Read more

The impact of nutritional scavenging on host-pathogen interactions, antifungal efficacy and emergence of antifungal resistance

Infections caused by Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) cause more deaths globally than any other fungal disease. Over 20 million are affected annually with four million having life threatening invasive and chronic infections with high morbidity and mortality up to 90%. Read more
