Allostery-driven G protein selectivity in the adenosine A1 receptor

The A1R is a high-value drug target but is linked to serious cardiovascular side effects because it activates multiple G proteins. 


Characterising Neurological Disorders with Nonlinear System Identification and Network Analysis

With an increasingly ageing population, neurological disorders (ND), including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease (AD and PD), are becoming the second leading cause of death and the world's largest cause of disability-adjusted life years. Currently, incurable ND have a devastating impact on individuals, families and a heavy economic burden on societies.

ComMent: Social Enterprise Training for Community Mental Health Care

The purpose of the ComMent project is to create educational resources for entrepreneurial skills development tailored to the identified mental health professionals” needs.


Economic intelligence for the Coventry and Warwickshire LEP

This project showcases the important relationships the Centre has with economic development agencies in its own sub-region. The Centre works closely with Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership (CWLEP) in developing, hosting and maintaining an economic intelligence hub which provides a gateway to key data and economic reports on the sub-region as well as hosting relevant strategies and plans. 


Green Entrepreneurs in Cuba – Evaluation of a collaborative initiative to strengthen Small Scale Private Sector Initiatives in Rural Cuba

To evaluate the project participatory action learning cycle and the focus on small scale entrepreneurship in order to provide guidance and recommendations to donors for project follow up.


Trade-off Management between Safety and Cybersecurity (TOMSAC)

This research is aimed at assuring cybersecurity and safety of complex CPS/IoT systems, which arise from convergence of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT).


Evaluation of HMP Rye Hill's Recovery Unit (Master Gardener Programme)

The extension of the Master Gardener Programme from a community to a prison setting was in recognition of research evidence that showed a range of positive outcomes associated with the role of horticulture in supporting physical, emotional, behavioural and social wellbeing.


Bog Biographies: Combining high spatial and chronological resolution ecological modelling for understanding societal and cultural resilience

Iron Age ‘bog bodies’ have fascinated scholars and the public alike for over two centuries due to their exceptional preservation. Research has typically focused on forensic examination of the bodies themselves but, despite much revolutionary scientific research, debate surrounding why individuals were killed and deposited in bogs has stagnated. Consensus generally remains divided between two key themes originally suggested in the early 19th and 20th centuries: capital punishment, and ritual sacrifice.


Design and evaluation of peat-free blocking media

The production of field vegetables and salad crops is highly dependent on transplanted seedlings that are grown in media often containing peat.


UK-France Hydrogen Energy Research Collaboration for Enhancing Research & Innovation

This project aims to build a collaborative partnership between Coventry University and Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (CEA).


PETALS 2 (FGM Webapp for professionals)

This project builds on an FGM information webapp that was successfully developed for young people by Coventry University.


Non-Newtonian Taylor-Couette Flow Experiment with a High-precision Rheometer

Fluids in many industrial settings such as food processes, glass manufacturing or metal casting exhibit non-Newtonian behaviours (e.g. shear stress is not proportional to shear rate). For processes like mixing, pumping or production in industry, understanding and applying the dynamics of non-Newtonian fluids are important to optimise the processes. Fundamental research explored non-Newtonian fluid dynamics through a canonicalsystem called Taylor-Couette (TC) flow, a shear flow between two concentric cylinders rotating independently. While keeping its simple geometry, the flow demonstrates the richness of complex phenomena such as instability, pattern formation or turbulence.
