Artificial Intelligence
Queen Mary University of London
About the Project Over the past few years, artificial intelligence has undergone a massive shift from static, single-turn models to semi-autonomous AI agents capable of planning, using tools, and interacting with the environment. Despite these advancements, current agent architectures remain largely and fundamentally static.

About the Project Inflammatory arthritis substantially increases cardiovascular risk, including heart dysfunction, yet the molecular links between chronic joint inflammation and the failing heart remain poorly understood. Cardiac macrophages, fibroblasts and endothelial cells are central regulators of tissue homeostasis, metabolic adaptation and repair.

About the Project Failure to resolve synovial inflammation drives pain, tissue destruction and disability in rheumatoid arthritis. Maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration (MCTRs) are endogenous mediators that promote resolution and tissue repair, but the receptor-linked mechanisms that connect MCTR3 signalling to synovial-cell reprogramming remain incompletely defined.

About the Project Rheumatoid arthritis is associated with excess cardiovascular morbidity that is not adequately addressed by current anti-inflammatory treatment. Resomelagon is a clinical-stage melanocortin receptor agonist with potential to promote resolution without broad immunosuppression.

About the Project Chronic inflammatory diseases alter bone-marrow output, creating circulating myeloid cells that can perpetuate systemic inflammation and cardiovascular injury. Specialised pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) are active regulators of immune-cell development and function, yet their role in controlling haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in rheumatoid arthritis and cardiovascular disease is not understood.

About the Project Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) are a state of matter predicted to be found in magnetic materials with strong quantum fluctuations. The spins in most magnetic materials form regular repeating patterns at sufficiently low temperature, but QSLs are very different. Instead of settling into a fixed configuration the system exists in a superposition of many possible magnetic states at once.
