PhD Project: Development of a broad-spectrum single-marker blood biopsy assay for autoimmune disease
Outline Human immunity to external insult is controlled by innate and adaptive systems, which can activate inappropriately causing chronic autoimmune conditions such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Sjogren’s syndrome (SS) and Multiple Sclerosis (MS)... -
PhD project: Efficiency Improvement for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) transceivers for IoT applications
Internet of Things (IoT) relies on wireless communication and it is a key motivation of many existing and future researches. This position focuses on the efficiency and sustainability of one of the most popular technologies known as Ultra Wide Bandwidth (UWB) transceivers for IoT applications... -
PhD Project: Efficient Machine Learning Algorithms for Large Scale Data-center Monitoring in Ireland
Background: Monitoring data-center status plays a critical role in Cloud data-center management: it provides the intelligence for data-center optimization. The problem is that distributed state monitoring is hard in large-scale dynamic data-centers. Existing periodic monitoring d... -
PhD Project: Enablers and Barriers: An investigation into students’ thoughts when engaging with procedural and problem-solving tasks in mathematics in Ireland
This research aims to extend existing work which examines beginning undergraduate students’ problem solving and procedural skills, in the context of the introduction of the ‘Project Maths’ curriculum in second level education in Ireland in 2008. One of the aims of ‘Project Maths’ was to change the... -
PhD Project: Impact of platelet-derived extracellular vesicles on the quality and function of blood components in transfusion science practice in Ireland
Outline Blood and blood-derived products are a scare resource that are essential for the practice of modern medicine. It is essential to ensure that all donor blood is used as effectively as possible, to ensure the best clinical outcomes. Deleterious changes may occur during the storage of donor... -
