Mechanical Engineering (clinical) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 21 Mechanical Engineering (clinical) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Assessing blood flow control in the brain

Supervisory Team.   Profs. David Simpson. Project description. Blood flow to the brain is controlled by a series of interacting complex physiological mechanisms that ensure an adequate supply at all times. Read more

Wearable Healthcare Sensor for Continuous Monitoring of Critical Biomarkers and Therapeutic Drugs

Supervisory Team.   Prof. Xize Niu, Prof. Pete Worsley, Prof. Michael Ardern-Jones. Project description. Wearable sensors measure various physical, chemical, and biological information in real-time and continuously and in a non-invasive or minimally invasive manner. Read more

Accelerating the Design of Patient-Specific Fracture Fixation

The design and advanced manufacturing of patient-specific biomedical implants is set to revolutionise healthcare. However, the costly design framework which is currently required to create personalised 3D digital models is a huge barrier to implementation in most clinical settings. Read more

Developing an algorithm for detecting placenta abnormalities

The placenta plays an important role during pregnancy by transporting nutrients to the fetus. Occasionally the placenta does not function properly, giving rise to a range of issues such as placenta accrete and intrauterine growth restrictions (IUGR). Read more

Nanoengineering in Pharmaceutical Formulation

Project start date. 01 October 2024. Project duration. 3.5 years. Studentship funding. Home tuition fees (currently £6,035/year) and maintenance stipend (currently £20,622/year). Read more

Ultrasound Neural Interface
