Ensure on time health care delivery through the use of biometric clocking system
Expiration: June 30, 2019Late healthcare delivery has become a prominent problem in hospitals and clinics for the low income patients or clinics located in remote/rural areas, there is a high desrimination on patients admitted and from that issue death rate has increased in hospitals located in remote areas. The project is to install bio-metric clocking machine to ensure on time healthcare delivery through elimination of absenteeism and buddy clocking from nurses and doctors

Rational design and structural characterization of bioinspired silk-based nanomaterials
Expiration: October 1, 2019Synthetic, bioinspired silk-based biopolymers represent excellent sustainable and biodegradable alternatives for the traditional, non-degradable petrochemical plastics. Bioplastics made from bio-mimicking materials will redefine the plastic-manufacturing of the 21st century. The PhD project will focus on the fundamental understanding of the hierarchical organization of naturally occurring silk proteins from amino acid building blocks to nanoscale crystallites and further to functional structural materials. The designed sequences will be produced using recombinant DNA techniques and characterized by nanoFTIR, Tip-enhanced Raman, CD, and solution/solid-state NMR spectroscopy techniques.
