Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, England invites online application for multiple funded PhD Programs \/ fully funded PhD positions in various research areas.<\/span><\/p>\n Candidates interested in fully funded PhD positions can check the details and may apply as soon as possible. Interested and eligible applicants may submit their online application for PhD programs via the University\u2019s Online Application Portal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical public health threat. Gram-negative bacterial pathogens cause a wide range of infections and are prone to resist multiple antibiotics. Polymyxin antibiotics, destabilising bacterial membrane leading to cell lysis, are the last-resort antibiotic against these pathogens. Alarmingly, the rise in resistance to polymyxins across the globe (including the UK), underscores the urgent need to address this challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Several types of polymeric materials undergo rapid degradation under both storage and use, unless antioxidants and stabilisers are added to suppress undesirable reactions. This project is co-funded by Thomas Swan & Co. Ltd. and will be focused on the identification and further development of routes for effective extraction and modification of biorenewable antioxidants and stabilisers in order to enhance the sustainability of polymeric materials. The candidate will research biomass sources and extraction techniques, exploit chemical modification pathways, and investigate performance of the novel preservatives in final application scenarios.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Follow FellowshipBard for daily updates! <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Facebook<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Twitter<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Linkedin<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Telegram Channel<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n The PINZ CDT will train the next generation of process and chemical engineers, and chemists, to develop the new processes, process technologies and green chemistries required for the process industries\u2019 transition to Net Zero. Climate change is one of society\u2019s greatest challenges. As the world\u2019s largest food and beverage company, Nestl\u00e9 has pledged its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving net zero emissions from their global manufacturing processes by 2050.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This PhD project is part of the\u202fCDT in Process Industries:\u202fNet Zero.\u202fThe successful PhD student will be co-supervised by academics from the\u202fProcess Intensification Group\u202fat Newcastle University. Established in 1925, Croda is the name behind sustainable, high-performance ingredients and technologies in some of the world\u2019s most successful brands: creating, making and selling speciality chemicals that are relied on by industries and consumers everywhere. This project will help to support Croda\u2019s \u201cNet Zero by 2050\u201d strategy, enabling them to invest in low-carbon, intensified processes that meet their future manufacturing needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n This PhD project is part of the\u202fCDT in Process Industries:\u202fNet Zero.\u202fThe successful PhD student will be co-supervised by academics from the\u202fProcess Intensification Group\u202fat Newcastle University. Nestling has designed a containerised cultivation and processing plant for a broad range of microorganisms with a focus on mycelium. The system is fully automated; the SCADA system is connected to the cloud and provides performance data, enabling the monitoring of critical process parameters (CPPs) and critical quality attributes (CQAs).<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4 year Chemistry PhD in chemical crystallography for pharmaceutically relevant molecules, on high-throughput crystallisation and single crystal X-ray crystallography (SCXRD) of linear and macrocyclic peptides. Many modern drug molecules are complex linear and cyclic synthetic polypeptides. Crystallisation of such molecules presents a very challenging problem, however success in such an endeavour is key for both structural elucidation by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (SCXRD) and for cost effective purification. This project will develop new high-throughput Encapsulated Nanodroplet Crystallisation (ENaCt) methods, based on previous work in the group (Chem 2020, 6, p1755; JACS 2023, 145, p23352; ChemSocRev 2023, p1995), for the crystallisation and analysis of medically relevant complex polypeptides.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The project will combine behavioural, electrophysiological, and chemogenetic approaches. We will use behavioural tasks designed to measure anxiety-like behaviour in nonhuman primates. Non-replicating viral vectors will be used to deliver an excitatory chemogenetic receptor to a specific interneuron type. Expression will be restricted to this cell type using an enhancer sequence recently developed by our collaborators. Multi-channel electrodes will be used to record from large populations of cells from the amygdala, while subjects perform tasks; neural activity under vehicle and treatment conditions will be contrasted, and correlated with changes in behaviour.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n We are offering an exciting fully funded PhD opportunity to join the SMaRT-PD project within the Faculty of Medical Sciences at Newcastle University. SMaRT-PD is an innovative research initiative focused on designing a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) to help people with Parkinson\u2019s disease manage and monitor their symptoms more effectively.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This interdisciplinary project will examine how insects achieve this dexterity, by studying foraging in praying mantises and bumblebees using behavioural experiments, micro-CT scanning, myogram reading, and advanced motion analysis. Working with scientists at Liverpool, Sussex, and Edinburgh, we will study how dexterous behaviour changes throughout lifetime, providing possible novel models for studying how ageing affects human dexterity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n This project will develop a state-of-the-art Hydrosystems modelling framework to systematically and strategically identify industry-relevant index-based parameters for sector-specific drought insurance that account for climate change and changing water security risks. The results from the project will help to communicate 21st century drought and water security risks to the climate-vulnerable energy, agriculture and industry sectors, and quantify the benefits of adopting parametric drought policies.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n This PhD project introduces a ground breaking approach to real-time urban flood modelling through physics-informed neural networks (PINNs). The framework embeds fundamental physics laws, such as the Shallow Water Equations, into the neural network\u2019s loss function. This ensures physically consistent predictions, even when historical data is limited, and addresses the limitations of traditional data-driven methods, which often fail to generalise to unfamiliar scenarios.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n1.
