Course Summary

The groups focus is on understanding structure function relationships of amphiphilic bioactive molecules and the design of new biomaterials. We offer alternative start dates for your research degree, commencing in September, January and March for maximum flexibility. September 2024 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 June 2024, EU/International is 1 May 2024, January 2025 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 November 2024, EU/International is 1 September 2024, March 2025 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 December 2024, EU/International is 1 November 2024. September 2025 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 June 2025, EU/International is 1 May 2025. The group is multidisciplinary and draws on a range of specialisms including, biology, (cell biology and microbiology), chemistry (biochemistry, synthetic chemistry), physics (biophysics, nano physics) and computational modelling to:

Investigate the mode of action of helical peptides and other bioactive amphiphilic molecules and to identify their molecular target(s)

Undertake structure-activity studies to improve the antimicrobial activity and oncolytic properties of amphiphilic, membrane interactive compounds

Develop computational methods for the identification and assessment of key functional characteristics of amphiphilic molecules with medical applications
