PhD Studentship: Actuated microdevices for oral delivery of biologics

University of Birmingham

Most biological drugs cannot be given orally because of their poor oral bioavailability, necessitating delivery by injection instead. This is because features of the gastrointestinal tract that prevent infection, such as a thick mucus layer and tight epithelial junctions, also block large therapeutic molecules. Researchers have investigated various techniques to overcome these barriers, such as chemical permeation enhancers, ultrasound, and microneedles. Studies have also shown that mechanical stimulation via na...

PhD Studentship - Long-distance Continuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution with Amplifiers and Memories

Manchester Metropolitan University

Entanglement distribution is a foundational capability for quantum networks, enabling diverse quantum technologies including—but not limited to—quantum key distribution (QKD). QKD provides information-theoretic security even against quantum-capable adversaries, making it one of the most mature and commercially relevant applications of quantum communication. However, current QKD links are limited to short distances. Overcoming this limitation requires quantum repeaters, which enable long-distance entanglement dis...

PhD Studentship: Developing a Finite Element Based Model for Pellet Relocation in Nuclear Reactor Fuel

University of East Anglia

Primary supervisor - Dr Thomas Anthony Haynes Pellet-clad interaction (PCI) is a complicated phenomenon, relatively poorly captured in current commercial fuel performance codes. Models have been built in the commercial finite element software ‘Abaqus’ to capture pellet clad interaction in both light water reactors (LWRs) and the UK advanced gas cooled reactor (UK-AGR). Whilst Abaqus offers advantages in terms of materials modelling and contact, COMSOL offers the potential to capture a fuller range of physical be...

PhD Studentship: Computational Chemistry Driven Design of Improved Thermal Batteries

University of Birmingham

Thermal batteries (often termed primary reserve batteries) offer several key advantages over primary and secondary batteries due to their long shelf life, high temperature stability, quick activation, reliability, robustness and the fact that they are maintenance-free. Despite these many advantages, the exact mechanisms that control performance in industrially utilised thermal batteries has remained unclear for decades, and thus design principles for discovering new thermal battery materials have been lacking. I...

PhD Studentship: Direct Recycling of Next-Generation Battery Materials for Sustainable and Circular Manufacturing

University of Birmingham

The transition to electrified transport and renewable energy storage is driving unprecedented growth in battery manufacturing. However, large-scale battery production generates significant quantities of manufacturing scrap, including coated electrode off-cuts and rejected cells, which contain valuable active materials that are currently underutilised. The development of efficient recycling technologies is therefore essential to support a sustainable and resilient battery supply chain. This PhD project, in the En...

PhD Studentship: Machine Learning and Computational Modelling to Define the Abnormal Heart Tissue Responsible for Fatal Heart Rhythms

University of Warwick

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) accounts for approximately 15-20% of reported deaths in the UK. Mostly, these deaths are linked to cardiac arrhythmias. One of the most common and dangerous is Ventricular Tachycardia (VT), a rapid and unstable heart rhythm that often arises from regions of diseased or scarred heart tissue. VT can lead directly to sudden cardiac death if not treated immediately. VT can be treated with a procedure called ‘catheter ablation’, which significantly reduces VT recurrence rates, reduces hosp...
