Currently, organolithium reagents are ubiquitous in both academia and industry for breaking and making chemical bonds. With demands for lithium soaring due to its use in energy technology, new alternative organometallic reagents are required to ensure continuity and new innovations in the chemical industry. This project envisions the development of organocaesium chemistry will fill this need.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n A fully funded PhD studentship (3 years) in computational chemistry (materials discovery) is open at the University of Strathclyde commencing October 2024. This PhD will involve conducting cutting-edge research to utilize Artificial Intelligence (AI) in expediting the discovery of functional molecular materials crucial for a wide range of applications, spanning from renewable energy technologies to advanced electronics. Specifically, by employing advanced physical models and harnessing recent advancements in AI, tailored automated workflows will be developed for high-throughput screening of materials databases, effectively directing exploration towards materials possessing desired properties. Consequently, this research will accelerate the discovery and optimization of functional materials, thereby advancing the field of materials science.<\/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 We are seeking a PhD candidate for a fully funded 4-year Medical Research Scotland scholarship (UK home fees) to develop novel biomaterials mimicking the multi-functionality of native cells and biological tissue. To demonstrate the concept, the candidate will develop synthetic polymer vascular grafts (i.e., blood vessel replacements) with surfaces that exhibit both anti-bacterial properties as well as promote cell and tissue integration. The project will take a chemical approach as well as exploit natural biomolecules, e.g., polyphenols and peptides, to enable the required biochemical and materials functionalities.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The MRes is suitable for recent graduates, who wish to advance their research skills in the field as well as candidates, who wish to consider subsequent PhD studies. This programme represents a unique opportunity for students to conduct a substantial research project in the area of Speech and Language Sciences undertaken over one year. Students will gain important research skills by taking at least one 20-credit research training class from the following, and 160 credits of independent research study: Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n How particles pack together to make stable structures is a puzzle that has been addressed by many illustrious scientists and engineers, including Kepler, Coulomb and James Clerk Maxwell. Recent interest has grown from a need to design porous packings or materials for a range of critical applications, such as absorption and molecular storage for CO2 and H2, effective filtration eg in water treatment, understanding sediment formation and soil instabilities in natural phenomena and for climate resilience, improving particulate processes such as tableting in foods and pharmaceuticals, and designing innovative materials such as structured low-density solids for construction, aerospace, transport and packaging. <\/span><\/p>\n Of particular interest is the case of small particles, where thermal energy fluctuations (Brownian motion) play an important role: this case includes packings made from chemical and physical flocculation\/gelation, with applications such as manufacture of adsorbents and porous materials; and natural sedimentation processes involving microscopic particles such as fines, micropollutants and algae.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n From solar energy to fuel: A holistic artificial photosynthesis platform for the production of viable solar fuels, funded through EU Horizon. The project aims to develop a hybrid platform system of artificial photosynthesis for the circular and sustainable production of butanol, a green platform chemical and advanced biofuel, from solar energy, water and waste CO2. This is realised via three integrated units: Unit 1, a photovoltaic unit converting sunlight to electricity, Unit 2 – electrolyser that uses novel catalysts based on earth-abundant materials to split water into hydrogen and oxygen with high efficiency and stability; and Unit 3, a bioreactor that uses bioengineered bacteria to selectively convert hydrogen and CO2 into butanol with high productivity and tolerance.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The UK currently imports all its copper, nickel, cobalt, and a variety of other critical metals from overseas. This poses not only a supply security threat, but also frustrates the aim of decarbonising since most of the imported material is produced using pyrometallurgical methods and have to be transported to the UK from the Far East, both of which have a large carbon footprint. As this country approaches net-zero, it is anticipated that the electricity grid will require expansion \u2013 with a concomitant requirement for many of the metals used for generation (such as magnetic and rare-earths metals), distribution through the grid network (i.e. cables), and well as power transformation at consumer end.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Biogas is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, particularly since methane (its main component) is ~28 times more potent than CO2 in trapping heat in the atmosphere. Upgrading biogas to renewable natural gas or bio-methane, would mitigate these emissions while also harnessing the energy potential of anthropogenic waste. This requires the biogas stream to be purified from roughly 60% to at least 90% methane, removing CO2 and other contaminants in the process. Among all available technologies, including scrubbing, membranes and adsorption processes, the latter offer higher energy efficiency and comparatively low cost. However, the effectiveness of adsorption processes hinges on the optimal selection of adsorbent material.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Zero-emission shipping transition is greatly restricted by the design and manufacture of light weight, cost effective, and high performing reliable materials structures in marine environment. The conventional manufacturing of multi-materials structure in ship building industries is performed by non-sustainable manufacturing processes with multiple manufacturing steps. This project will address sustainable manufacturing for zero emission shipping through contribution of new knowledge and understanding on scientific challenges related to multi materials additive manufacturing.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The project aims to demonstrate through case studies and close collaboration with industry how external digital sensors, collecting contextual data and allowing for inter-product communication can allow manufacturers to gain greater contextual awareness which help increase the remaining useful life (RUL) of a product, predict maintenance cycles, and reduce waste. This effectively repositions a \u2018dumb\u2019 product into a data point within a global network.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Extensive global coastlines specifically in tropical climates, present a unique opportunity for the development of Ocean Renewable Energy (ORE) systems. The project envisions the integration of these individual energy systems into a comprehensive hybrid ORE system. This approach is crucial to optimise energy output, reduce intermittency, and create a resilient energy infrastructure. Various countries such as the United States, Australia, Japan, China, Portugal, Spain, and South Korea have considerable potential for offshore wind and wave energy due to their long coastlines and the coastal landscapes exposed to open ocean.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n1.
