Facial paralysis results in weakness of the facial muscles, typically on one side of the face, affecting the facial function, appearance and communication of emotions. The objective of the project is to develop a working prototype and trial (through proof-of concept clinical studies) an inconspicuous, non-invasive wearable device (indistinguishable from normal spectacles) that provides discreet feedback on facial muscle movement and helps patients to continuously practise facial muscle exercises.
The goal of the project is to identify and subsequently characterise the dsRNA dimension of the animal gut microflora (both the differential presence of antisense bound to mRNA and phage dsRNAs containing novel genetic information in response to AB pressure). Identification of novel functional dsRNAs (asRNA bound to its target and phage dsRNAs involved in AR) will mark a paradigm shift in our understanding of the development of AR and future approaches to treating infections.
The overall purpose of the research is to model a usable practice-based template for sensing the city, drawing on the city of Coventry (UK) as a case-study in the first instance. The template will offer a range of methodologies towards, first, engaging constructively and productively with urban sites using the sensate presence of the human body as the primary means of gathering data and, second, processing and presenting that data in innovative ways within a critical framework that assesses the city's habitability and sustainability.
As part of a new strategy in Leicester, UK, people born overseas will be offered testing for certain infectious illnesses when they register with a GP in the city. We aim to find out whether this will result in GPs identifying more people with these illnesses.

Strengthening the Capabilities and Training Curricula for Conflict Prevention and Peace Building Personnel with ICT-based Collaboration and Knowledge Approaches.
Collaboration with Stockholm University (2010-2015) Coventry University internal funding has allowed for the development of a long-term relationship between Coventry and Stockholm Universities. The collaboration between Dr Brady (CCSJ, Coventry University) and Prof Olin Lauritzen (Department of Education, Stockholm University) is a useful example of a proactively sought research relationship that is international, cross-disciplinary, and has benefits for both academics and both universities.
Work Buddy is an android-based app that seeks to support people with learning disabilities to learn and recall new, or infrequently performed tasks, at home, when travelling and in the workplace.
The team were commissioned to undertake an academic evaluation and impact assessment of the Delivering Quality in General Practice Project and produce a targeted evaluation report on the outcomes, detailing findings and recommendations.
In response to the escalating threat of climate change, the UK and Europe are taking decisive action by actively investing in projects and initiatives geared towards the mitigation of climate impacts.
This project aims to demonstrate highly efficient zHDV powertrains for long-distance applications, in line with the European 2050 targets.
