The Blended Diet Study: the perceived benefits and risk of using a blended diet with children and young people with complex health needs and enteral feeding requirements

The use of a blended diet as an alternative to prescribed formula feeds has provoked strong opinion in research and among professionals. The aims of the report will be to examine the evidence for best practice with regards to providing a blended diet via gastrostomy tube.


Teenage Cancer Trust North-West Pilot Site Evaluation: A participatory action research project in the NW of England evaluating Teenage and Young Adult cancer services

Coventry University were tasked with providing a  longitudinal evaluation of the Teenage Cancer Trust's pilot scheme in the North West. 


Using novel computational modelling approaches to address biased agonism at the Adenosine A1 receptor

We seek to apply cutting-edge advanced sampling molecular dynamics simulations to address the complex biological issue of how G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transition between multiple active states.


Great expectations: a predictive processing account of human balance control

This research considers ways we can deliberately “manipulate” our predictive brains by using various interventions to modify our beliefs/expectations about an important perceptual-motor skills.


PostUraL tachycardia Syndrome Exercise (PulSE) study

A lifestyle intervention designed by people with POTS, for people with POTS.


InoCardia: Delivering Improved Cardiac Safety Liabilities for Therapeutic Drugs Using the Contractome-AI

The commercialisation of Professor Maddock's academic research started with a vision that there was a fundamental need within the Pharmaceutical Industry for the development of improved physiological relevant model to assess cardiac contractility.


InoCardia: Novel human-cell based assay for assessment of cardiovascular liability

The aim of this project was to test the concept of a higher throughput functional cardiac cell contractile assay under truly physiological conditions, advancing information on how the heart behaves functionally and enabling the testing of inotropic drugs in these conditions.


Using movement and story telling to enhance motor and cognitive development in preschoolers

This study sought to pilot an innovative intervention for pre-schoolers whereby movement is linked to storytelling in a fun and accessible manner.


Evaluation of the Shuttletime Programme

This project examined the effect of engaging in the BWF Shuttle Time programme, compared to traditional Physical Education, on children's current and future engagement in sport and physical activity and health.


Through the eyes of children, young people and families - Evaluation of the model of care delivered by WellChild Nurses

This project carried out a longitudinal evaluation of the model of care delivered to children, young people and families with complex care needs by organisation WellChild.


Choosing a Journal for Publication

Publishing in top international journals (such as those with 3*/4* CABS assignments) is a priority for most academics.   


Novel Kinetic Models To Decipher GPCR Binding Mechanisms

G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) control how cells respond to hormones, neurotransmitters, and drugs. Although modern structural biology has revealed many GPCR complexes, we still don’t understand why a receptor chooses to signal through one partner, such as a specific G protein or β‑arrestin. This project challenges the long‑held assumption that signalling specificity is driven by complex stability and instead proposes that binding kinetics determine pathway selection.


Coventry University spin out wins UK Social Enterprise Award

A digital health social enterprise born out of Coventry University's Research Centre for Intelligent Healthcare, has won Tech for Good: Technology Social Enterprise of the Year at the UK Social Enterprise Awards 2024.


Second Innovation Lab for BIOPlastics - Designing Solutions

Coventry University to support second set of green transport innovators to drive sustainability in the West Midlands

The second cohort of cutting-edge small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the potential to revolutionise green transport have been selected to join the Clean Futures accelerator programme.


Translating Climate Risk into Action: An Agentic AI Decision-Support System

This PhD project will develop an agentic AI system capable of generating context‑specific, stakeholder‑relevant climate adaptation narratives and decision‑support outputs for agricultural and peri‑urban planning.


Investigation of green roofs as an ecological tool in combating urbanisation, improving biodiversity and providing wildlife stepping stones

The aim of this two year KTP project is to investigate the value of water managed green infrastructure in urban areas to improve biodiversity.


Green roofs for ecological benefit, water management and sustainable design KTP: SEL Environmental and Coventry University

The benefits of green roofs individually include the improvement and reduction of energy consumption, while a concentration across a large area has been proven to reduce temperatures in the surrounding climate.


Evaluating peat-free propagation media suitable for production of high-quality ornamental transplants

The project aims to fill the scientific knowledge gap in peat-free plant production in ornamental horticulture.
