Teaching and learning

Students are initially registered as MPhil and required to complete a series of modules in their first year (from a very wide selection of bespoke modules), with assessment including an oral examination component. Upon the successful completion of these modules, students are required to complete a research project before being formally upgraded to PhD student at the end of the first year.

Training will be supplemented with attendance to seminars, cohort building activities, research integrity training and additional transferable skills training.

Revolutionising Infection Diagnosis Through Targeted Radiometal Imaging Background of the Project: People with conditions like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, organ transplants, or immunodeficiencies face higher risks of infection, complications, and death. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is vital to improve outcomes in these vulnerable groups. However, clinical diagnosis of microbial infections is often challenging, and noninvasive methods tend to perform poorly. Existing lab techniques typically require invasive sample collection, followed by time-consuming culture and antibiotic resistance t
