In this project, we will characterise immunodominant T-cell epitopes (class I and class II) shared across different AAV serotypes AAV2, AAV5 and AAV9 complete capsid vectors using monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDDCs) from a panel of healthy donors representing a broad range of alleles. Furthermore, comprehensive in vitro T-cell assays will be used to detect cross-reactive, memory T-cells responsive to AAV antigens using PBMCs from healthy donors and patients with AAV immunotoxicity.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n This PhD project brings together expertise in nanoscale surface science and local scale electrochemistry, cell-surface interaction probes, microbiology and imaging across physical and biological sciences to study the electrochemical process that occurs both at the local site and single cell level and at the population level.

CO2 heat pumps, utilizing carbon dioxide as a refrigerant, offer significant advantages in terms of environmental impact and energy efficiency compared to traditional systems. However, unlocking their full potential requires precise control and optimization of operational parameters. By leveraging advanced computational methodologies this project aims to enhance the operational strategies of CO2 heat pumps across a broader operating range for greener and more sustainable heating\/cooling applications.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This project aims to address this gap by developing a tool to assist planners and policymakers in locating EV charging stations based on specified criteria and available data. The research objectives include identifying critical parameters influencing charging station placement, formulating a multi-stage optimisation problem to maximise utilisation and ensure equitable distribution, and creating an interactive tool for stakeholders to visualise optimal charging station locations based on regional needs and constraints. This tool aims to empower local stakeholders to strategically deploy charging infrastructure tailored to their specific contexts, informing local planning and policymaking for the optimal establishment of EV charging infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The PhD aims to quantify the importance of ocean circulation in driving biological carbon storage by the Biological Pump. The student will initially use an intermediate complexity Earth System Model to run historical simulations and future projections and investigate the role of circulation on the Biological Pump during the present-day and in the future, and identify the key processes that control the response of the biological pump to a climate-induced changing circulation. The student will have freedom to then explore various research directions based on their interests such as: 1) Will ocean circulation continue to be the main driver beyond the 21st century and\/or after net zero? 2) What are the main drivers of uncertainties in the Biological Pump in current IPCC projections? 3) What impact does a changing circulation have on proposed marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) techniques?<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most aggressive and lethal malignancies, with a five-year survival rate of ~10%. The lack of effective therapeutic options and the high incidence of chemoresistance underscore the urgent need to elucidate the molecular mechanisms driving PDAC development and progression. Loss of cell polarity, a hallmark of epithelial neoplasia development, is critical during the progression from pancreatic preinvasive lesions to invasive PDAC. Altered expression of cell polarity regulators leads to dysregulation of oncogenic and tumour suppressive pathways, thereby promoting tumour progression. Further evidence indicates that inactivation of polarity genes drives resistance to chemotherapy and correlates with poor outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n To produce a high-quality electron beam for future applications, AWAKE requires novel instrumentation to measure and monitor the three beams, (proton, electron, and laser) throughout the acceleration process. This project includes R&D into optical monitors for measuring the longitudinal pulse profile with fs resolution, the simultaneous measurement of the proton and electron beam profile using digital micro mirrors and micro lens arrays for imaging purposes, and applying optical fiber-based beam loss monitors developed in the QUASAR Group for experiment optimization.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n This project aims to develop and explore new materials and approaches for water treatment based on a combination of the large porosities and tuneable morphologies offered by polymeric scaffold materials (membranes) and 2D nanostructured materials (transition metal dichalcogenides), which offer promise for pollutant removal and catalytic activity and generation of reactive oxygen species. Basing the scaffolds on sustainable, low-cost biopolymers with high-yield, scalable functionalisation methods to generate TMDCs directly on the scaffold aligns this project towards development of low-cost solutions suitable for the developing world and addressing persistent challenges with clean water.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Training in robotics, chemistry and structural characterisation will be given. The project will develop protocols to identify materials with potential application gas separation (focusing on capturing carbon dioxide from flue gas and challenging separations of hydrocarbons) and catalysis (transformation of biomass for next-generation clean manufacturing) applications that will focus the large numbers of new materials identified for further detailed exploration. The project is driven by a vision of a future where research scientists will make routine, broad use of robotics as part of the discovery of advanced materials, and thus the project will prepare the student for a wide range of industrial and academic career opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Water scarcity and contamination are among the most pressing global challenges of our time. Approximately 25% of the global population lives in regions experiencing annual water strees, a number projected to rise significantly by 2050. By then, 25 countries will face extreme water scarcity, withdrawing 80-100% of their available water resources annually. Furthermore, 44 countries are expected to experience high water stress, withdrawing 40-80% of their water resources. Even countries with moderate or low water stress levels will increasingly rely on efficient and sustainable solutions to manage water resources.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n A fully funded PhD studentship is available in collaboration with UL Materials Discovery Institutes (Research – UL Research Institutes) in the area of synthesis and automated analysis in a chemical laboratory focusing on atmospheric water harvesting (AWH), leveraging atmospheric water vapor as a sustainable resource to combat water scarcity.
