1. Fully Funded PhD Position in A Comprehensive Characterisation of Mentally-Disordered Offenders and Prediction of Treatment Outcomes
Summary of PhD Program:
Forensic mental health patients, the majority of whom have schizophrenia and/or antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), tend to have highly variable outcomes, with some experiencing lengthy stays and high rates of reoffending following discharge. Knowledge of the patient characteristics which are associated with good or poor clinical outcomes would serve to identify areas of unmet need and potential treatment targets. Throughout this doctoral programme, the student will develop proficiency in mental illness and personality disorder symptomatology assessment, neuropsychological testing, cognitive and experimental psychology methodologies, brain imaging techniques, and advanced statistical analyses.

2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Experience-based codesign for effective physical activity interventions with working age adults living with multiple long-term conditions
Summary of PhD Program:
The team of Prof Norris, Dr Hunt, Dr Nolan and Dr Bailey at Brunel University London is offering a fully funded PhD studentship to co-design a physical activity intervention for working-age adults living with multiple long-term conditions (MLTC). Based in and funded by the College of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences, this studentship offers a full-time annual London rate stipend estimated at £21,237 (including London weighting) and Home/EU tuition fees, for a maximum of 36 months.
MLTC is the co-existence of two or more chronic conditions. In the UK, the majority of people living with MLTC are less than 65 years old, with 2.5 million people out of paid work due to MLTC. Physical activity is an effective intervention for managing MLTC, but there is limited research in working-age populations. Increased physical activity levels in working-age people with MLTCs may be related to remaining in and/or returning to paid work.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Lineage tracing of blood stem cell development in embryo-like gastruloids
Summary of PhD Program:
The team of Cristina Pina (https://www.brunel.ac.uk/people/cristina-pina), Alessandro Esposito (https://www.brunel.ac.uk/people/alessandro-esposito) and Victor Hernandez (https://www.brunel.ac.uk/people/victor-hernandez) at Brunel University London, is offering a fully-funded PhD studentship to develop a live imaging and lineage tracing system to monitor blood formation and emergence of blood (haematopoietic) stem cells in a 3D gastruloid model of embryogenesis. Establishment of the lineage tracing system will support implementation of the 3D gastruloid model as a replacement for animal studies, and its eventual use as a source of blood cells for transfusion and transplantation.

4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Plastivore Plasticity
Summary of PhD Program:
Applications are invited from high-calibre and passionate students seeking to pursue an exciting career in analytical and environmental science research, with a focus to tackle a growing concern with respect to managing plastic waste. Pollution is now considered an environmental emergency alongside biodiversity loss and climate change. There are many forms of pollution but it predominantly concerns the issue of chemical and plastic waste. In particular, plastic waste represents a very complex societal challenge; the benefits provided by plastics are indisputable but we have seen concerning impacts in the environment from the micro- to macro-scale.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Experimental Particle Physics
Summary of PhD Program:
The Particle Physics Group within the College of Engineering, Design and Physical Sciences at Brunel University London, Uxbridge, UK is offering a fully funded STFC studentships; to work on the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment (CMS) at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The studentship will begin on the 1st of October 2024. The Particle Physics Group has been performing research in experimental particle physics for over 25 years, with its current focus being the CMS experiment at CERN, the MICE experiment at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, and Grid computing for particle physics (GridPP project).
Application Deadline: 31/05/2024
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in EDEM Drag Force Model Investigation of Predict Pick-up Efficiency of Gravel
Summary of PhD Program:
The proposed project aims to investigate the experimental and EDEM drag force model in order to accurately predict the pick-up efficiency of gravels. By conducting a series of experiments and analysing the data obtained, it intends to assess the validity and reliability of the EDEM drag force model. This will involve comparing the predicted pick-up efficiency of gravels using the EDEM model with the actual experimental results. Through this investigation, it used to enhance the understanding of the underlying mechanisms governing gravel pick-up and improve the predictive capabilities of the EDEM drag force model.

7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Combustion Characteristics of Hydrogen in Engines
Summary of PhD Program:
Applicants should submit the documents below to be considered for a research project on the Combustion Characteristics of Hydrogen in Engines. The hydrogen powered engines are vital to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions but they face several challenges with respect to abnormal knocking combustion. This project aims at developing mechanisms to understand hydrogen combustion that will account explicitly for the chemical and residual gas effects under a wide range of pressures and temperatures. Software such as CHEMKIN, CONVERGE, FOAM and in-house developed MATLAB codes will be used in this research to understand Hydrogen combustion in Heavy Duty Engines.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in The scaling of nonlinear structural dynamics and aeroelastic systems
Summary of PhD Program:
The need to conduct experimental tests in engineering applications is often unavoidable, where the successful design and analysis of new dynamical engineering systems are broadly dependent on many investigations conducted through theoretical, computational and experimental verifications. The experimental observation of phenomena also aids the development and understanding of scientific laws. However, the experimental testing of dynamical systems can be challenging due to high costs and the lack of experimental resources. It can also be very challenging or impractical to conduct tests due to uncontrollable factors, while for large and oversized systems, creating the actual working conditions for testing the prototype can be very time-consuming or impossible.

9. Fully Funded PhD Position in Co-design and test an intervention to increase engagement in pulmonary rehabilitation in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD project will involve co-design and investigation of the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a full-scale cluster-randomised controlled trial of a very brief behaviour change approach, for healthcare professionals to assist conversations on pulmonary rehabilitation with people with COPD. The doctoral researcher will undertake both qualitative and quantitative research, including focus groups, co-design workshops, and mixed-method feasibility cohort study. With the support of Dr Nolan, they will lead on patient and public involvement activities and be a member of the study’s independent advisory group and trial steering committee.
