PhD opportunity in programmable DNA nanotechnology for the selective recovery of critical and rare elements at The University of Edinburgh . The project is jointly supervised by Davide Michieletto and Jason Love and explores how DNA nanostructures could enable more selective, reusable, and sustainable recovery of rare-earth elements and other rare and precious metals. These elements are important for electronics, permanent magnets, and low-carbon technologies, but their clean separation and recy...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds on Understanding and Predicting CaCO3 Growth on Subsea Infrastructure . This project investigates the formation and growth of calcareous deposits (CaCO3) on subsea infrastructure and their impact on cathodic protection systems. The research combines experimental investigation, advanced characterisation, electrochemical analysis, and predictive modelling to improve offshore engineering design. The project is undertaken in collaboration with Deepwater EU ...
