MEMARC's members conduct research into materials development, as well as biological systems and sports engineering. Learn more about this research, the researchers who work in this area and the materials development and processing projects members have completed.
Wave propagation in lattices and microstructures is one of MEMARC's key research specialisms. Researchers working in this area concentrate on invisibility, focusing and shielding.
The Mechanical Engineering and Materials Research Centre (MEMARC) have a number of PhD research opportunities. Find out more about postgraduate study within MEMARC.
PhD students within the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour are working on interesting projects including: investigating pain in autism, the impact of taste, and pain mechanisms.
This project focuses on the role olfactory and oral perception plays in shaping our consummatory experiences, preferences, and food seeking behaviours. Research into this area is important to health research, shaping understanding of individual differences in food selection, consumption, and other dietary behaviours.
Exploring the impact of creative transpersonal psychology practices in person-centred coaching
This study aims to understand the causal relationship between discrimination and psychosis in ethnic minority populations in the UK.
Research suggests that autistic people are at a higher risk of suicide than non-autistic people. Figures show that up to 66% of autistic adults had thought about suicide during their lifetime (compared to 20% of non-autistic adults), and up to 35% had planned or attempted suicide.
The research talks of the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour (RCBB) showcases current work of researchers from all areas of brain and behavioural sciences.
