Ultrashort Pulse Laser Micromachining Centre (USP-LMC): Scoping studies for new laser interaction regimes Mar 1, 2017 - Aug 31, 2017
The UK National Strategy for Laser-based Manufacturing published by AILU and the CIM-LbPP makes it clear that there is a strong need for the development of laser devices and manufacturing related applications. These two activities cannot exist in iso... Read More about Ultrashort Pulse Laser Micromachining Centre (USP-LMC): Scoping studies for new laser interaction regimes.

TSB Costs (Study 1, 2, 3 & 4): In vitro and in vivo assessment of polyphenol extracts on cardiovascular indices Jan 1, 2012 - Aug 1, 2016
Evidence suggests dietary plant polyphenols are associated with reducing indices of cardiovascular disease such as endothelial dysfunction, insulin resistance and hypertension. The key objectives of this translational research proposal are to study a...

Earthquakes without frontiers: a partnership for increasing resilience to seismic hazard in the continents Jul 1, 2012 - Jun 30, 2018
Disasters in seismically-prone regions are the outcome of physical hazards interacting with a vulnerable population (Wisner et al, 2004). Just as these disasters are ‘co-produced’, so research on increasing people's resilience to withstand, recover a...

 Climatic and Autogenic Controls on the Morphodynamics of Mega-Rivers: Modelling Sediment Flux in the Alluvial Transfer Zone Jul 1, 2012 - Jan 31, 2017
The world's largest rivers transport ~19 billion tonnes of sediment each year, with a significant fraction being sequestered in the large deltas that are home to 14% of the world's population. Most (>70%) of these large deltas are under threat from r...

Ecological response to environmental change in the Boreal Realm and the origins of three mass extinction events Aug 1, 2013 - Jan 31, 2020
Since the Cambrian Explosion of life on Earth, about 540 million years ago (Ma), ecosystems have been suffered repeated mass extinctions. There have been at least five major extinctions since then, most recently the famous event 65Ma, that wiped out...

ISCHEMIA: Internation Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness with Medical and Invasive Approaches Apr 15, 2013 - Jun 30, 2019
Primary objective is to determine whether an invasive (INV) strategy of routine early cardiac catheterization with intent for optimal revascularization in addition to optimal medical therapy in patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) and a...

Training scientists to develop and Image materials for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (iTERM) Oct 1, 2013 - Sep 30, 2017
With an increasingly aging population, new treatment solutions for diseased, defective, or damaged tissues need to be developed. Although human donor material would be preferable for these purposes, this is often not available and often associated wi...
