PhD project: Watching aggregation in liquids with terahertz spectroscopy The University of Southampton is offering a competition-funded Doctor of Philosophy project in the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, focused on how molecular-scale dynamics connect to mesoscale structure in complex liquids. The research will use intense terahertz spectroscopy to monitor structural evolution as molecules or particles aggregate, separate into phases, or coalesce into larger domains. The work will ...

Fully funded PhD opportunity at the University of Glasgow in Biomedical Engineering , Rheology , Biophysics , and Mechanobiology . The project asks whether the mechanics of tissues can reveal disease by measuring how biological tissues deform, flow, and relax. The research builds on i-Rheo-Indent technology to uncover mechanical biomarkers of disease through rapid, broadband viscoelastic measurements. The work sits at the intersection of fundamental physics, soft matter, biomedical engineering, ...

PhD opportunity at the University of Southampton in Watching aggregation in liquids with terahertz spectroscopy . This project sits in the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the School of Physics and Astronomy , with supervision by Prof. Fabio Novelli . The research explores how liquids change structure as molecules or particles aggregate, separate into phases, or self-assemble into larger domains. Using intense terahertz spectroscopy , the project aims to connect molecular-scale d...
