Doctoral Network in Technologies for Healthy Ageing
This doctoral network is training the next generation of physical scientists and engineers to develop novel technologies and devices to address the challenges faced by older people and our clinical colleagues who work with them. It is structured around three healthy ageing challenges - prolonging independence, maintaining wellness and accelerating recovery.
Doctoral Network in AI for Future Digital Health
Directed at creating and maintaining a community of AI health care professionals that can apply the latest research within AI to Health Care. Each PhD project is co-created in collaboration with a health provider and/or a healthcare commercial partner. The network provides students with training, culminating in a PhD, in a collaborative environment.
ESRC Centre for Doctoral Training Data Analytics and Society
This CDT will provide postgraduate research and training across four Universities – Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield. It will encourage significant advances to bring together social science with methods from computing, mathematics and the natural sciences. Focussing on the creation and analysis of new longitudinal and streamed data resources for socio-economic investigations, creating new methods, investigating social processes and facilitating interventions.

Liverpool Doctoral College
The Liverpool Doctoral College is the home for all doctoral training and development across the University. It supports all postgraduate researchers to thrive in their doctoral programme. A dedicated team of esteemed supervisors, professional services staff and student peers ensure students succeed in their studies.
