Danny McAuley

Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

Professor McAuley is open to PhD applications from candidates with a basic science or clinical background.

His major interest is the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). My research strategy in ARDS is to investigate potential novel therapeutic agents in ARDS in vitro, in vivo in human models of ARDS and in phase 2 clinical trials to inform subsequent phase 3 clinical trials. I am currently investigating the role of MSCs, statins and ECCO2R in ARDS.
My other current research interests are patient stratification in ARDS, sepsis diagnostics and delirium.

Previous research experience is desirable although not essential.
