So-called ‘deaths of despair’ are rising in the UK. Labour must act on this silent epidemic
Rates of suicide, alcohol and drug fatalities (collectively known as “deaths of despair”) have increased by 9%, 45% and 81% respectively in England and Wales over the last decade. Given that mortality rates for most other causes are stable or decreasing, this increase is deeply concerning. In total, in 2022 these three causes accounted for […]

This can be through instruction set enhancements, memory system optimisation, or even ground-breaking alterations to the underlying micro-architecture of fundamental compute elements while also considering power efficiency, area, compiler targetability, and related objectives.
Are you passionate about dreaming up innovations that have the potential to change the future of compute? We are offering internships across the computer architecture stack, such as:
- Analysis and categorisation of new / novel applications through to the design of efficient instruction set and micro-architecture for handling these applications.
- Implications of upcoming byte-addressable, non-volatile memories, and other data storage technologies.
- Security, encryption, and integrity protection in the core, system, or memory hierarchy.
- Micro-architecture innovations enabling new generations of cores, caches, predictive structures, accelerators, and more.
- Compute-near-data abstractions, and data-movement-optimised memory hierarchies.
- Improving our formal verification methods, to be more efficient and more effective at finding bugs earlier in the design cycle.
