Modified polymer surfaces are gaining huge significance in various fields with wide applications in the biomedical industry. The surface modification on polymers can be achieved by various methods like exuberant physical method, self-organization and self-assembly and chemical functionalization of t...

Preserved Ejection Fraction (pEF) is a condition in which the heart’s ability to pump blood throughout the body is reduced. It is characterised by a stiffening of the myocardium (cardiac tissue), leading to the heart not relaxing to its full size before contracting for the next heartbeat. This res...

Stress and sex-specificity in emotion disorder remains poorly understood. This PhD project plans to examine psychophysiological effects of stress (hormone and ERP response) cognitive [Iowa gambling task] and affect response in anxiety-depression.

Living around natural environments may have beneficial health effects. However, lack of evidence is a barrier to developing 'green' cities. Policy-makers in India and Australia want to reconcile the different dimensions of how changing the greenspace affects health and provides climate benefits.

This project focuses on the development of start-to-finish pipelines for biotherapeutics derived from functional genomics patient data.

There are multiple traditional geometric problems in computer vision such as camera pose estimation, 3D reconstruction depth estimation, and tracking for which strong mathematical models and efficient, robust algorithms have been known for decades. Recently with the popularity of deep learning, rese...

Photo-detectors convert light into electrical signals. They are used in electronic imaging applications in cameras, automobile sensors, medical imaging, and robotics. The global market for image sensors is estimated to reach $15 billion/annum by 2020. The field of organic-inorganic hybrid photodiode...

The project aims are to examine the potential of using honey production in rural communities as a tool for enhancing biodiversity conservation and saving threatened species. The project will examine and map native rhino, elephant and other large mammal conservation and hunting in the Indian sub-cont...

Electronic waste (e-waste) is the fastest growing waste stream with an annual growth rate of about 3–5%. E-waste generated in 2016 was 44.7 million tonnes and it is expected to grow to 52.2 million tonnes by 2021. Unregulated accumulation or dumping of e-waste can cause severe health and environme...

Civil engineering infrastructure facilities experience large-scale damage due to the movement of foundations resting on problematic soils. Documented evidence shows that the existing problems associated with expansive clay is world-wide, having occurred in countries such as, Africa, Australia, India...
