As well as funded DTPs and doctoral training programmes, we also have a number of Research Clusters and groups collaborating to find solutions to some of the most pressing global challenges.
Partnerships
Neuro-Resilience Cluster
Funded by: DMU
Lead Academic: Dr Dan Sillence
“Postgraduate researchers are absolutely essential for a dynamic and exciting research environment. The team comprises of a multidisciplinary, experientially and culturally diverse, and inclusive group of scientists who have been working collaboratively to unravel the intricate mechanisms by which the natural process of ageing contributes to the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases”
The skills gained by researchers joining this research cluster include: Research skills include PCR, electrophoresis, confocal microscopy, Cell painting, mass spectrometry, lipid analysis, drosophila lab, respirometry and organic synthesis.
Applied Electromagnetics
Funded by: EPSRC
Lead Academic: Professor Alistair Duffy
We’re aiming to advance the field of Electromagnetic Compatibility through developing innovative validation techniques, applications, and standards that bridge fundamental research with industry practice while establishing a globally recognized research community at DMU. Researchers in our cluster feel empowered and supportive. Everyone works to their strengths and determines their own direction but everyone else is there for discussions and help when needed.
Creative Technologies
Funded by: Various funders
Lead Academic: Professor Tracy Harwood
Our researchers create new knowledge, synthesizing practice-based research with pioneering advances in digital computing, information technologies, creative practice, science and engineering.
