INVESTIGATING THE POTENTIAL OF BIOACTIVE GAUZE DRESSING IMPREGNATED WITH HERB-LOADED NANOPARTICLES IN FACILITATING WOUND HEALING
REFNo: HS1393ES
The main aim of this work is to functionalise the gauze dressing using herb loaded nanoparticles to enable faster wound healing in excision wound models established in rats.
Specific objectives
1) To determine the antibacterial activity of Bidens pilosa L., Hoslundia opposita Vahl and Ageratum conyzoides L., plant extracts.
2) To determine the effect of the most efficacious antibacterial herbal extract on wound healing rate using excision wound models in rats.
3) To determine the effect of nano encapsulation of the herbal extract using biopolymers, on its antibacterial activity and wound healing rate.
4) To evaluate the effect of incorporating herb loaded nanoparticles into the gauze dressing on its antibacterial activity and wound healing rate.
5) To assess the effect of the herb loaded nanoparticles on the performance characteristic of the gauze dressing.

Ritual, Identity and Ideology: Constructing the Past in Sub-Saharan Africa
REFNo: SS258ES
I am investigating how the past is manipulated to support present-day ideological agendas in sub-Saharan Africa, in order to understand the ways in which new histories are constructed to reinforce and legitimate group identities and ideologies. I will assess where such constructions ¬– for example at museums, educational institutions and heritage sites, and through intangible heritage displays and local neo-traditional (ritual) activities – reveal disparities between academic renderings of the past and histories that are generated by, and for the use of, the public. I will also assess the active role of heritage sites and intangible heritage practices – and therefore the social responsibilities of archaeologists and heritage workers – in shaping societies in sub-Saharan Africa today; and help archaeologists to recognise and appreciate that the past is evolving in the present, independent of their own work and an aging base of historical knowledge. Uganda is a particularly interesting example of this because, while recent historical work there has been limited, an explosion of newly constructed local histories serves increasingly to distort the historical record. The research will generate important information which will be useful to sites including the Uganda Museum as a source of data and debate as they plan their future development.
