Australia-Postgraduate Awards in Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges
2008-01-25 02:06:00
Queensland University of Technology, Australia Postgraduate research project to develop an innovative structural health monitoring system to monitor and predict distress in Australian bridges. This project is funded by the Commonwealth Government, through the ARC, supported by Queensland Main Roads Department and Brisbane City Council. Many bridges in Australia are old and are now subjected to heavier and faster moving loads, than originally envisaged and in addition suffer structural deterioration with age. These factors can cause localised distress, which if not attended to can cause bridge failure with adverse consequences. This research project is to address this issue.

UK-PhD Scholarships in Life Science, Studying Lowe Syndrome using Zebrafish
2008-01-20 02:55:00
University of Manchester, UK This postgraduate research project is funded by the Faculty of Life Science . Principal investigator of this project is Dr Martin Lowe . The studentships is available for International students. This PhD project will be started in September 2008. Lowe syndrome (LS) is an X-linked disorder affecting the brain, kidneys and eyes. It is caused by mutation of OCRL1, an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase localised to the Golgi apparatus, endosomes and lamellipodia. OCRL1 appears to regulate actin dynamics and membrane traffic, but the mechanisms involved are poorly defined, and consequently we do not understand how loss of OCRL1 brings about the symptoms associated with LS. Progress in this area has been hampered by the lack of a model organism that recapitulates the syndrome pathology.
