Do you have expertise and enthusiasm for human factors in healthcare? Do you want to carry out research that could have real benefits for staff and patient safety?If the answer is ‘yes’, then you should apply for this funded PhD project to address fatigue risk management in healthcare.
The aim of the project is to work on state-of-the-art heteropolymetallic architectures (organometallic transition-metal and lanthanide complexes) in the area of two-photon molecular upconversion luminescence, for application as novel bioimaging probes.
An opportunity has arisen for a PhD research student to work on an exciting project “Storage of liquid hydrogen fuel for net-zero maritime transportation” in the Infrastructure Research Group at the Civil, Maritime and Environmental Engineering Department in University of Southampton.
The aim of this project is to create a better spatial hearing experience for users in a large region without the need to wear headphones.
This project aims to explore the design of an alternative class of microphone arrays, so-called co-prime microphone arrays, for recording and processing speech in adverse environments. This will address a key challenge to improve the performance of modern smart devices in noisy and reverberant environments.
In the local Universe, galaxies can be broadly classified into discs, ellipticals and irregulars. Discs contain regularly-rotating gas, and are forming new stars. Ellipticals contain predominantly old stars in randomly oriented, round-shaped orbits, don't have much gas and are no longer forming stars. Irregulars are often the result of the merger between two disc galaxies, are rich in gas and dust, and are forming stars at an intense rate.
