avenues by enabling chronic, gut-based monitoring of neuroendocrine activity for applications such as closed loop therapeutics. The proposed PhD project sits at the interface of biomedical engineering

There is widespread concern about the negative impacts of plastic and other anthropogenic solid waste (hereafter referred to as ‘plastics’) on global biodiversity (Law, 2017; Lau et al., 2020). Such materials are extremely slow to break down, which has resulted in discarded micro- and...

. Yet, many stellar and planetary parameters remain systematically uncertain due to limitations in stellar modelling and data interpretation. This PhD project will develop Bayesian Hierarchical Models

Northwest Eurasia owes its anomalously temperate climate to the oceanic circulation cell known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). Regional warmth is maintained by northward-flowing Atlantic surface currents – including the Gulf Stream – that lose their heat...

Global biodiversity targets are repeatedly not met despite increasing conservation efforts. While in some cases this is due to inappropriate interventions or external pressures, in other cases, this is due to time lags in species’ responses to conservation efforts. Ecological time lags occur...

closed-loop control (verifying the dose delivered) is lacking. There is a clear need to advance the state-of-the-art by making ingestible capsules more autonomous, energetically efficient, and intelligent

A competition-funded PhD studentship is available in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham to develop and apply nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging to advance

Woodburning has emerged as the single most important source of primary fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in Birmingham and likely many other UK cities. Exposure to PM2.5 from wood stoves contributes to hundreds of premature deaths each year in Birmingham and imposes a significant burden on public...
