Three dimensional (3D) ultrasound image analysis of the female pelvic floor

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the descent of the pelvic organs into the vaginal canal, affecting up to 50% of the female population. Pessaries are intravaginal medical devices used to alleviate the symptoms of prolapse. However, pessaries are fit through trial and error and finding the right fit is not guaranteed for all patients. Cosm […]

Conversion of lignocellulosic biomass or waste materials into value-added products via hydrothermal fractionation and liquefaction/gasification

I propose the study on intermediate (value-added) product production from distributed lignocellulosic biomass or waste materials through hydrothermal fractionation/liquefaction/gasification. In future, supply-chain network system is important because of reduction of electric loss. It can avoid food and unused land use issues. also, biofuels are considered carbon-neutral as the plant recycle the CO2 released from their […]

Chemical Modification of Lignin for Bio-based Materials

The increasing need for environmental protection together with the concerns over the future availability of petrochemical feedstock have led to the design and development of new bio-based chemicals and materials using renewable resources. Lignin is the second most abundant natural renewable polymer after cellulose. The lignin content in woody stem various between 15%-40% and it […]

Self-Assembly of Nanoparticle-based Colloidosomes via Click Chemistry for the Formation of Inorganic Prototissues

The concept of artificial cells, or protocells, serves to provide researchers with deeper insights into primitive cellular functions and behaviours through the study of non-living cellular analogues. Protocells are synthetic, cell-like microcompartments designed to mimic key aspects of living cells. Recently, Dr. Pierangelo Gobbo made a remarkable step forward in this research field and utilized […]

Automated Fatty Liver Diagnosis

Up to 30% of the population has a Fatty Liver Disease (FLD, a condition in which fat builds up in your liver). Non-invasive ultrasound assessment of this liver condition is an increasing demand in healthcare service due to its high risks leads to advanced liver diseases. However, an ultrasound-based examination has made the manual inspection […]

Phase-field crystal modeling of the interplay between nanostructure changes and ion transport in lithium-ion battery electrodes

The focus of my research is modelling graphene-hBN (graphene-hexagonal-boron nitride), a novel two-dimensional ceramic with the ability to allow for the measurement of both plastic and elastic strain. Mixing graphene with hBN augments the properties of the ceramic by making it stronger and more versatile. When exposed to an elastic strain, the ceramic will exhibit […]

Probing Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Photodissociation Regions

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a large class of complex organic molecules made of carbon and hydrogen that are ubiquitous throughout the space, accounting for up to 15% of the cosmic carbon. These molecules are made of fused benzene rings resulting in a honeycomb structure with hydrogen atoms at the edges of the molecule. They […]
