Full Project Detail:
A novel technical approach for very high speed, high accuracy absolute distance measurement has been developed within the Loughborough University spoke of the EPSRC funded Future Metrology Hub. The technology has many potential industrial applications, particularly in the automotive and aerospace sectors, such as low-cost jig-less assembly, machine calibration, and dimensional quality control. The first demonstrator, built with bulk optics, achieved 100,000 measurements (of target range, displacement and velocity) per second. In collaboration with the Optoelectronics Research Centre in Southampton, the concept was then miniaturized on a photonic integrated circuit to allow for metrology systems to be embedded in the production line. The chip-scale devices present new challenges, including thermal stabilization, active switch control, cross-talk and dispersion effects, frequency calibration and real-time signal processing.
The iCASE studentship will focus on a performance study of a chip-scale demonstrator while working with Renishaw’s Research and Development Engineers to explore the commercial viability of future products based on this technology.

Entry requirements:
Applicants should have, or expect to achieve, at least a 2:1 Honours degree (or equivalent) in Physics, Engineering or a related subject. A relevant Master’s degree and/or experience in one or more of the following will be an advantage:
Optical waveguides and photonic devices
Frequency scanning interferometry

Lasers and Optical Measurements
Signal processing – Linear systems
Funding information:
The project is funded by an EPSRC iCASE award and Renishaw. The studentship is for 4-years and will provide a minimum tax-free stipend of £15609 p/a, plus tuition fees at the UK/EU rate (currently £4500 p/a). International students (including EU) are eligible to apply but the difference between the UK and International tuition fee cannot be covered by the Research Council grant and must therefore be met from other sources. To qualify for UK fees, you must meet the EPSRC eligibility criteria including the minimum UK residency requirement: https://www.epsrc.ac.uk/skills/students/help/eligibility/

Reference number: SSEHS/SW
Start date of studentship: 1 October 2021
Closing date of advert: Thursday 1 July 2021

External supervisor: Dr Carol Smyth
Asthma is the most prevalent chronic disease in the UK. Improvements in detection and management of asthma will improve outcomes for asthma patients and reduce the cost of treating the disease. Persistent symptoms and quality of life impairments associated with asthma are widely reported despite pharmacotheraputic intervention. Assessment of individual breathing patterns using 3D motion capture technology (opto-electronic plethysmography - OEP) is an attractive candidate for respiratory assessment, diagnosis, and management, particularly for children, and for the evaluation of exercise-induced symptoms. It provides rich information about the contribution and timing of different chest wall sections during healthy and pathological breathing. This project will build on previous work that has established measures to distinguish dysfunctional breathing from healthy breathing by extending these techniques to asthmatic breathing. Real-time breathing pattern feedback will used to restore healthy breathing patterns in those with dysfunctional and asthmatic breathing patterns to reduce symptoms. This project will lay the foundation for a breathing monitoring and retraining system derived from OEP methodology.

The School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences has been ranked 1st in the world for Sport-related Subjects.
Entry requirements:
Applicants should have an interest in respiratory function, data analysis and motion capture. It is essential that applicants demonstrate post-GCSE mathematics experience. Some experience in Matlab, Python, or R is required, or a background in coding and / or statistical analysis. This could be via degree modules or other qualifications, project or industrial experience, or other experience that should be detailed in the application.
Applicants should have, or expect, at least a 2:1 Honours degree (or equivalent) in Sport and Exercise Science (with biomechanics content), Computing, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics or Statistics. A Masters in a relevant subject is desirable.
The School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences recognises and values the benefits of appointing and sustaining a diverse PhD community and work force and is committed to fostering an inclusive environment for research and learning. We welcome applications from groups under-represented in science and at this level of study.

Funding Notes
About the Project
This exciting project funded by Bowel Research UK will investigate the use of clinically relevant targeted therapies as potential novel radiotherapy sensitisers in low oxygen (hypoxia) in colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer accounts for over 10% of worldwide cancer diagnoses, with high incidence and mortality, and the presence of regions of hypoxia in tumours remain a clear obstacle in treatment for this disease.
You will join a growing and experienced research team led by Dr Isabel Pires, who has published extensively on the field of tumour hypoxia and radiobiology. This project will be closely aligned to the Adaptive Radiotherapy PhD studentship cluster at the University of Hull (also led by Dr Pires), where you will have the opportunity to engage with experts in the field of radiotherapy, molecular imaging, and clinical oncology, including the project co-supervisor Dr Rajarshi Roy, who is a Consultant Clinical Oncologist at Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. Furthermore, this project will involve as collaborators leading academics from the University of Oxford and the University of Copenhagen.
We are looking for a highly motivated, enthusiastic, detail-oriented candidate who will have a solid knowledge base and laboratory experience in cell biology and molecular biology, and, ideally, knowledge on cancer biology and relevant laboratory experience. You must also be willing to work in a multi-disciplinary project and research environment.
The PI and primary supervisor, Dr Isabel Pires, is a Lecturer in Biomedical Science at the University of Hull. Dr Pires’ lab is focused on the understanding of tumour hypoxia biology and its implication for tumourigenesis, therapy, and metastatic spread.
Dr Rajarshi Roy is a Consultant Clinical Oncologist at Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and specialises in the treatment of Colorectal and Upper GI cancers and cancers of unknown primary origin. Our collaborators Dr. Marie Kveiborg (University of Copenhagen) and Professor Ester Hammond (University of Oxford) will also provide additional expertise and support to the project.
I.Pires@hull.ac.uk for more information about this project.
Applicants should have either a minimum of 2:1 undergraduate degree Biomedical Science, Cancer Biology, Biochemistry, or a related discipline with relevant experience, or have a Masters-level qualification in a relevant discipline. Experience in cancer biology laboratory techniques is desirable, but other relevant experience may also be considered.
The successful applicant will receive a fee waiver and a maintenance grant / stipend for three years, which covers the research period of the PhD. The fee waiver for 21/22 is £4500 (Home fee) and the maintenance grant is £15609. This rises each year in line with the UKRI’s recommended stipend allowance.
