DTP 2020-2021 King's College London

伦敦国王学院已经开始了一项变革性的举措，以扩大其科学和技术的广度和深度，作为其2029年战略愿景的一部分。这些领域的增长将：加强大学现有的核心优势;加强与大学健康科学的蓬勃发展的接口;并扩展到新的技术和工程领域。我们的EPSRC DTP资金提供了灵活性，以针对博士生的优先研究领域的增长，并提供博士研究的机会，目前通过EPSRC资助支持的领域。它还为早期职业研究人员提供新的学术任命或着名的奖学金，如UKRI未来领导者奖学金。在所有情况下，学生将沉浸在一个支持和蓬勃发展的研究环境。国王的核心科学和DTP资助的机会将在纯数学和应用数学的坚实基础;在光子学，纳米技术，生物物理学和软物质和，凝聚态物质理论和模拟;和化学领域的重点是了解生命的化学和与生物学和生物医学科学的接口。EPSRC资助的数学博士培训机会存在于EPSRC CDT伦敦几何与数论学院。我们致力于在技术和工程领域发展新的活动。DTP资助的机会将在我们不断增长的信息学研究活动中提供，通过金融，健康，安全，城市生活和可信的自主系统的研究中心汇集在一起，进一步EPSRC资助的博士培训机会存在于我们新的UKRI CDT中安全和可信的AI。该大学在生物医学工程和成像科学方面具有显着的优势。DTP资助的机会将在外科和介入工程的新领域提供，我们已经创建了一个新的部门，有大量的新员工，包括早期职业研究人员。我们将使用我们的DTP来支持智能传感器和执行器（包括医疗机器人），材料，计算机辅助干预和计算建模，大数据流等领域的学生，以提供基于人工智能的术中决策支持和手术辅助。EPSRC资助的其他机会存在于我们的智能医学成像EPSRC CDT中。这些也与我们的惠康信托/EPSRC医学工程中心和我们的新伦敦医学成像和人工智能中心的研究保持一致，以价值为基础的医疗保健。学生通过三个层次的培训得到支持，集中通过我们的博士研究中心（www.kcl.ac.uk/study/doctoral-studies），以及教师和学校/部门级别。国王研究的跨学科性以及我们与其他伦敦机构及其他机构的伙伴关系和合作将增强和扩大研究和学生体验的适用性。未来的学生可以通过访问研究生招生简章（www.kcl.ac.uk/study/pg）研究我们提供的学科领域。学生可以通过学院网页上的主管简介确定感兴趣的具体领域：自然和数学科学学院，包括数学，物理，信息学和化学（www.kcl.ac.uk/nms/research）和生命科学和医学学院（www.kcl.ac.uk/lsm），特别是生物医学工程和成像科学学院（www.kcl.ac.uk/bmeis）。有关DTP的信息可通过我们的博士研究中心（www.kcl.ac.uk/research/funding-opportunities/doctoral-research-opportunities/current-phd-opportunities/epsrc-cdt）获得，该中心提供有关学生和学术人员如何以及何时可以申请DTP奖学金的信息，并将链接到相关部门的页面和联系人。

King's College London has embarked on a transformative initiative to expand the breadth and depth of its science and technology as a part of its Strategic Vision 2029. Growth in these areas will: build on existing core strengths within the university; build on the thriving interface with the university's health sciences; and expand into new areas of technology and engineering. Our EPSRC DTP funding provides the flexibility to target PhD studentships to priority research areas of growth, and to offer opportunities for doctoral research in areas currently supported through EPSRC funding. It also offers support to Early Career Researchers on new academic appointments or on prestigious Fellowships such as UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship. In all cases, students will be immersed in a supportive and thriving research environment.King's has a strong bedrock of core sciences and DTP-funded opportunities will be available across pure and applied mathematics; in Photonics, Nanotechnology, Biophysics and Soft Matter and, Condensed Matter Theory and Simulation; and in Chemistry in areas with a focus on understanding the chemistry of life and the interface with biology and biomedical sciences. Further EPSRC-funded doctoral training opportunities in mathematics exist within the EPSRC CDT London School of Geometry and Number Theory.We are committed to growing new activity in areas of Technology and Engineering. DTP-funded opportunities will be available within our growing research activities in informatics, brought together through research hubs in finance, heath, security, urban living and trusted autonomous systems, with further EPSRC funded doctoral training opportunities existing within our new UKRI CDT in Safe and Trusted AI. The university has significant strength in Biomedical Engineering and Imaging Sciences. DTP funded opportunities will be available in new areas of surgical and interventional engineering where we have created a new department with a significant number of new recruits including early career researchers. We will use our DTP to support studentships in areas of smart sensors and actuators (including medical robotics), materials, computer assisted interventions and computational modelling, big data streaming to deliver AI-based intraoperative decision support and surgical assistance. Further EPSRC funded opportunities exist within our EPSRC CDT in Smart Medical Imaging. These also align with research in our Wellcome Trust/EPSRC Centre for Medical Engineering and our new London Medical Imaging and Artificial Intelligence Centre for Value-Based Healthcare.Students are supported through training at three levels, centrally through our Centre for Doctoral Studies (www.kcl.ac.uk/study/doctoral-studies), and at Faculty and at School/departmental level. The interdisciplinarity of King's research and our partnerships and collaborations with other London institutions and beyond will enhance and broaden the applicability of the research and the student experience. Prospective students can research the subject areas we offer by visiting the postgraduate prospectus (www.kcl.ac.uk/study/pg). Students can identify specific areas of interest through supervisor profiles on the Faculty web-pages: the Faculty of Natural and Mathematical Sciences including Mathematics, Physics, Informatics and Chemistry (www.kcl.ac.uk/nms/research) and the Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine (www.kcl.ac.uk/lsm) particularly the School of Biomedical Engineering and Imaging Sciences (www.kcl.ac.uk/bmeis). Information on the DTP is available through our Centre for Doctoral Studies (www.kcl.ac.uk/research/funding-opportunities/doctoral-research-opportunities/current-phd-opportunities/epsrc-cdt) offering information on how and when students and academic staff can apply for DTP studentships, and will link to the relevant department pages and contacts.
