Privacy Overview

New funding help for King’s graduate students

20190215-0123

Often described as the intellectual lifeblood of the University, graduate students have had a difficult time of late, with research funding in decline and the exceptional difficulties caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. For many, the closure of labs, libraries and research spaces during the lockdown periods has meant delays in being able to complete research work, and existing funding running out.

Declining availability of grants at both MPhil and PhD level, combined with the insecurity that graduates can be faced with during their studies, present barriers that are known to actively deter talented students from going on to further research. Additional financial support can make all the difference.

Two generous gifts towards graduate students are helping us tackle these inequities and enable students without existing financial means to undertake further study without the worry of having to assemble funding from disparate sources. One will support King’s PhD students from the UK or overseas, in any subject, who are in need of financial aid, and is eligible for match funding from the University’s Harding Challenge Fund, which extends the impact of giving to any aspect of student support at Cambridge.

It is perhaps unsurprising that those most closely involved with the College’s students should wish to help, having seen at first hand some of the difficulties faced. The second gift, from a King’s Fellow, will fund graduate studentships aimed particularly at those whose own parents did not go to university.

Adding to undergraduate student debt with further loans to fund graduate study can be a major deterrent. What’s more, those with most potential for graduate research aren’t always those who have been the highest achievers at undergraduate level – yet what graduate funding there is gets tied to this. Graduate funding is an area where every little counts, and at College level we are often in the best position to judge who will most benefit - Robin Osborne, Professor of Ancient History and former Senior Tutor at King’s.

Community is at the heart of College life and the impact of the lockdown periods has been profound, particularly for those who arrived at King’s to find themselves confined to a limited household and with little opportunity for interacting outside of it. A further gift will fund additional College social activities, helping to redress the balance for students whose Cambridge experience over the last 15 months has been very different to previous years’.  

King’s Provost Professor Michael Proctor said:

The myriad relationships that only develop when people gather in large numbers and close proximity have never had a chance even to begin. We need consciously to rebuild social life within College at every level, and offer the sort of opportunities for the chance encounter and unexpected conversation that serve to make this so enriching a place. It’s wonderful to have this gift to help us do this.

Title: Chevening Scholarships (King’s College London Scholarships)

Study mode: Postgraduate taught

Subject areas: Subjects in almost any field.

Funding type: Tuition fee. Stipend. Travel.

Chevening Scholarships are fully-funded awards that enable outstanding emerging leaders from all over the world to pursue one-year master’s degrees in the UK.

Chevening scholarships are open to applicants from over 160 countries and territories around the world, looking to study an eligible one year taught master’s degree at a UK institution.

Whilst there is no ‘typical’ Chevening Scholar, we are looking for the kind of people who have the passion, ideas, and influence to provide the solutions and leadership needed to create a better future.

Because these scholarships are fully-funded, you are free to focus on achieving your professional goals and maximising the experience of a lifetime. You will live and study in the UK for a year, during which time you will develop professionally and academically, network extensively, experience UK culture, and build lasting positive relationships with the UK. On completing your studies, you will leave the UK equipped with the knowledge and networks necessary to bring your own ideas to life.

Chevening scholarships are fully-funded, covering flights, accommodation, and course fees.

As part of a partnership agreement between Chevening and King’s College London, scholars who are funded on these scholarships receive a 20% cover towards their tuition fees from King’s.

To be eligible for a Chevening scholarship applicants must:

  • Be a citizen of a Chevening-eligible country or territory.
  • Return to your country of citizenship for a minimum of two years after their award has ended.
  • Have completed all components of an undergraduate degree that will enable entry onto a postgraduate programme at a UK university by the time they submit their application. This is typically equivalent to an upper second-class 2:1 honours degree in the UK but may be different depending on the course and university choice.
  • Have at least two years (equivalent to 2,800 hours) of work experience.
  • Apply to three different eligible UK university courses and have received an unconditional offer from one of these choices by the Chevening deadline.

We encourage you to apply if you meet Chevening’s eligibility criteria and other requirements. Your gender, age (there is no upper age limit), sexual orientation, religion, marriage or parenthood status, caste, class, or other attributes do not matter. What matters is your ability to submit a strong application that demonstrates you are capable of excelling on an intense master’s course in the UK, and that you have a clear vision for your future – and maybe even that of your sector or your country.

Title: Exploring the relationship between gut microbes, phages, metabolites and cardiometabolic health using computational methods (King’s College London Scholarships)

Subject areas: bio-informatics, statistics/mathematical sciences, human metabolomics/microbiome

Funding type: Stipend.

Exploring the relationship between gut microbes, phages, metabolites and cardiometabolic health using computational methods

Metabolomics and the gut microbiome are intricately involved in the risk of metabolic diseases. Moreover, there is increasing evidence that metabolites produced by the gut microbiota, such as short-chain fatty acids, bile acids and branch-chain amino acids, are responsible for several metabolic conditions including insulin resistance, diabetes and obesity, thus mediating microbial effects on human health.  Likewise, the gut bacterial communities and their activities can be altered by viruses, including phages, making these biological entities important regulators of the host’s health. For instance, gut virome alterations have been associated with a wide range of diseases. However, the impact of the gut virome on the metabolome and health is still scarce. The objective of this PhD studentship is to identify the contribution of the gut microbiome, virome, and metabolome to cardio-metabolic disease and to investigate their interactions. This will provide a better understand the underlying mechanisms of phage-host interactions and their impact on the human host. 

The PhD student will analyse available data from TwinsUK, a register of UK twins, and from the post-prandial nutritional intervention study ZOE PREDICT-1. These two studies provide a wealth of existing data, including blood and faecal metabolomics, the gut microbiome (shotgun metagenome), detailed cardiometabolic phenotyping at multiple time points, dietary information and post-prandial responses. The virome analysis will be supervised in collaboration with Prof. Li Deng at the Technical University of Munich and Helmholtz Centre Munich in Germany.

Seeking highly motivated early career researchers with a strong statistical/mathematical/bio-informatics background for a PhD studentship in human metabolomics/microbiome at the Department of Twin Research & Genetic Epidemiology, King’s College London. The Department has close links with Divisional and other Research Departments within King’s College, as well as many external Research Organisations. Our group includes over 60 researchers and produces over 70 papers per year in high impact factor journals including Nature, Cell and Nature Genetics and are ranked in the world top 1% of cited scientists. The PhD student will also work in close collaboration with the Deng lab in Munich, that has developed an integrative approach combining single-cell technologies, culture-independent techniques, multi-omics, machine learning, as well as their developed pipeline called ViroProfiler (https://github.com/deng-lab/viroprofiler) to analyse viral metagenomic data.

The successful candidates should have at least a BSc or equivalent in the areas of bio-informatics, statistics or mathematical sciences. The project’s main focus will be on quantitative analyses of microbiome, the virome and metabolites and will involve statistical analyses. The position will be based at King’s College London on the St Thomas’ Campus.

Title: EPSRC Studentship: Design of High-Performance Electrode Materials for Sustainable Non-Aqueous Aluminium-Ion Batteries (King’s College London Scholarships)

Subject areas: Materials science, chemistry, energy storage, batteries.

Funding type: Tuition fee. Stipend.

Awarding body: The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).

Country:  United Kingdom.

Full funding for 3.5 years to support a Home (UK) student for a PhD project in the Department of Engineering.

About the Project

The PhD project will focus on the development of innovative electrode materials for non-aqueous aluminium-ion batteries.

Background:  Due to concerns over the environmental impact of lithium-ion batteries and the use of critical materials, alternative battery systems including non-aqueous aluminium-ion batteries (AIBs) have gained increased attention. AIBs are advantageous in that they contain highly abundant aluminium replacing critical lithium, have low cost, and a high theoretical energy. However, AIBs are still in their infancy and further research is needed to understand their detailed working principles and how to control the underlying reactions.

Project details:  This project therefore aims to gain an in-depth understanding of the electrochemistry in AIBs and how to tune their performance. To this end, a systematic study of the impact of the chemical composition and materials engineering on the reaction mechanisms will be conducted. The obtained findings will be then rationalised into a design strategy for sustainable high-performance cathode materials for AIBs. Ultimately, the results of this project shall lead to the development of optimised AIB systems and will have a significant impact on the current battery landscape.

The student will use solid-state and solvothermal synthesis methods for the preparation of the electrode materials. In depth analysis of the materials is done via complementary characterisation techniques such as electrochemical cycling, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and more. Further, a computational component can be added. In addition, also the environmental and economic implications of AIBs will be explored using life cycle assessment and techno-economic modelling.

Requirements:  We are especially interested in students with a strong understanding of materials science, chemistry, chemical engineering, or relevant topics. Lab experience (chemical synthesis) is required. Additional knowledge in electrochemistry, energy storage systems and/or sustainability-related modelling is welcome but not a requirement.

This interdisciplinary project is positioned at the interface between materials science, engineering and sustainability and provides ample opportunities for internal and external collaborations.

Funding is available for 3.5 years and covers tuition fees at the level set for UK students, c. £6,120 p.a. and a tax-free stipend of approximately £19,668 p.a. with possible inflationary increases after the first year.

This opportunity is for Home (UK) students only. Candidates will apply for the research project described above in the Department of Engineering. Candidates are expected to hold an MSc/MEng in a relevant area and have experience with chemical synthesis and materials characterisation.

Title: PhD Studentship: to develop state-of-the-art numerical models of the HTS dynamo-type flux pump (King’s College London Scholarships)

Subject areas: Aerospace Engineering; Electrical Engineering; Energy Technologies; Engineering Mathematics; Computational Physics; Electromagnetism.

3.5yrs of funding to support a UK Home student for a project in the Department of Engineering.

Background:

The ability of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) materials to carry large current densities with little or no resistance makes them attractive for providing large rotor magnetic fields in high-power density superconducting electrical machines. Superconducting electrical machines are more efficient, smaller and lighter than conventional ones, and there is great interest in exploiting these properties for next-generation electric aircraft and other electric transport applications to meet ambitious net zero emissions targets.

HTS flux pumps – which exploit the nonlinear resistivity of an HTS wire when subjected to a varying magnetic field – offer the possibility of a brushless exciter for a wire-wound superconducting machine to inject a large DC current into its rotor coils without the need for slip rings/brushes and thermally-inefficient current leads. This would significantly improve the efficiency and reliability of such machines.

Project details:

This project aims to develop state-of-the-art numerical models of the HTS dynamo-type flux pump, in order to design and optimise the device for use as a brushless exciter for superconducting electrical machines in electric aircraft. Thus, in addition, a thorough analysis of electric aircraft requirements will be required to set design specifications.

To validate the numerical models, the project will also involve proof-of-concept experiments, which will ultimately enable us to explore the scaling up of the device for real-world application.

This studentship opportunity is only open to UK Home students applying for the stated PhD project within the Department of Engineering.

Candidate Specifications:

We are particularly interested in students with a strong understanding of physics, materials science, electrical engineering or other relevant topics. A strong interest in electrical machines and electric transport is also desirable. Additional knowledge in superconductivity, electrical machines, finite-element modelling and/or low temperature experimentation is welcome, but not a requirement.

Title: PhD Studentship: Development of numerical models and analysis tools for consumer energy decarbonisation within regional/global perspectives (King’s College London Scholarships)

Subject areas: Mechanical Engineering, Renewable Energy, Energy Storage, Thermal Energy.

Project Details

To limit global warming to the target of 1.5°C, COP26 ended with a global agreement to accelerate action against climate change this decade alongside many countries aiming for longer-term goals of net zero emissions by 2050. The building sector emissions are historically one of the largest sectors when including direct and indirect emissions from heating, electricity and cooking it accounts for 28% of global emissions, followed closely by the transport sector with 27%. Approximately 60% of emissions from both of these sectors is from consumer energy demands, making personal energy use from residential buildings and cars around 33% of global emissions.

To address personal energy (e.g., heating/cooling, transport, and electricity) decarbonisation, previous studies usually focus on the interaction between these demands, with work completed primarily at national level. However, as energy demands, investment for personal energy decarbonisation is usually paid by customers. It is critical to allow an understanding of if low-carbon technologies will be viable for consumers, and therefore if they will be taken up at mass, which may lead to different results to that which is optimum by regional level long term analysis.

This project is to lead the development of numerical models and analysis tools for consumer energy decarbonisation within regional/global perspectives. Objectives are to 1) analyse domestic energy decarbonisation (electricity, heating and transport) options from the customer’s perspective (one region or across regions in the world), 2) assess if decaronisation will worsen equality of access to energy services (e.g., electricity, water, etc), and /or 3) assess if bottom-up customers’ least cost options are compatible with top-down system optimums. Also, like www.HeatMyHome.ninja project, this PhD project will develop modelling tools. The PhD project is funded by KCL for over 3.5 years.

Your Profile:

A UK home student with good programming skills and interests. Passion about clean energy and decarbonisation. Committed to facilitating energy transitions to net zero and open to talking to cross-disciplinary researchers. Commitment to transparency, reproducibility and Open Science; Experience with modelling, optimisation and programming is a plus.
