1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computational Design of Small Molecules to Prevent the Early Formation of Multispecies Biofilms
Summary of PhD Program:
We are recruiting for a 3.5 year PhD project on “Computational Design of Small Molecules to Prevent the Early Formation of Multispecies Biofilms”. The project is part-funded by Penrhos Bio and will be based in the newly formed Strathclyde Centre for Doctoral Training in Artificial Intelligence for Molecular Exploration, Discovery and Development (AIMED2). Biofilms are ‘communities’ of microbes such as bacteria and fungi that live and grow on a surface. Harmful biofilms represent an increasingly serious societal problem from a wide range of economic, environmental, and health and wellbeing perspectives.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Information behaviours during times of transitions
Summary of PhD Program:
Life changes mean disruptions to how we normally live our lives. Often these take place within areas of our lives that are not routine or everyday and therefore may require new and specialised ways of dealing with information. During a life transition, our sense of mastery and coherence over our lives may be challenged, resulting in the need for information to help adjust to a new life. This PhD project will look at how we obtain and use information during a significant life change such as an illness, new job, or change to our relationship status.
Application Deadline: 1 October 2027
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Library as a place of sanctuary; library as a place of adventure
Summary of PhD Program:
Libraries appear in many forms: public libraries, school libraries, specialist libraries, health libraries, mobile libraries, etc. These are dedicated spaces designed to facilitate access to information, literature, support, culture, and they provide the ability to interact with a shared community space that is open to all without charge. Many people talk about these spaces as being crucial to their development as people, particularly as they provide a sense of safety and the ability to access new worlds.
Application Deadline: 1 October 2027
7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Sensor-Driven Robotic Automation for High-Integrity Welding in Marine Structures
Summary of PhD Program:
Specifically, the PhD will focus on sensor-enabled path planning and real-time control of small-reach robots, facilitating adaptive control and the dynamic adaption of welding paths before and after deposition. This research will take into account thermal phenomena and material behaviour, pushing the boundaries of process control, sensor design, and data interpretation in constrained and harsh environments. Additionally, the project will investigate the generation of the kinematics of robots with an emphasis on developing new methods for adapting to unknown welding joint geometries. The research will also involve the adaption of weld bead paths (e.g., start, stop, work angle adjustment) to optimize weld deposition and component repair, aiming for maximum flexibility in industrial applications.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Propagation of RF/microwave signals in plasma
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD research project will involve the student in undertaking numerical simulations and experimental investigations into RF and microwave propagation in plasma. Plasma as a non-linear and dispersive media can have a dramatic impact on the propagation of EM signals. Such effects are well known in laser-plasma interactions, in the injection of powerful microwave heating and current drive microwave signals in magnetically confined fusion plasma and in RF waves interacting in the ionosphere.
Application Deadline: 31 January 2025
9. Fully Funded PhD Position in Sideband Suppression on High Power Microwave Antenna
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD research project will involve the student in undertaking numerical simulations and benchmarking these against experimental measurements either in industry facilities or at the University to investigate novel schemes to suppress undesired sidebands in the output of slot mode antenna. The student will also explore alternative antenna designs to realise the same benefits. These antenna can be used in beaming microwave energy for application in energy transfer.
