Vice Chancellor`s PhD Studentships, 2010
Nottingham Trent University - School of Science and Technology (11 projects)
Nottingham Trent University is inviting applications for 12 fully-funded PhD studentships, commencing in October 2010. The studentships will pay UK/EU fees and provide a maintenance stipend linked to the RCUK rate (currently £13,290 per annum) for up to three years.
Applications are invited for the following projects within the School of Science and Technology:
1. Novel Switching Mechanisms in Multistable Nematic Liquid Crystal Displays
2. Dopant migration and aging processing in semiconductor lasers, heterostructures and nanostructures
3. Novel therapeutic vectors towards the therapy of uveal melanoma
4. Non-equilibrium behaviour in model soft materials
5. Antibiotic resistance of Hospital and community acquired E.coli, mechanisms and associated virulence factors
6. Liquid Origami: The Physics (and Chemistry) of Droplet Wrapping
7. Population genetics to unravel the evolutionary history of the Yersinia enterocolitica complex
8. Reduction of carbon footprint through optimum scheduling of power plants
9. Stratification of cord blood stem cells
10. Role of genetic variation in the alteration of bone metabolism and stress fracture injury
