Personal profile

Research interests

My research takes nanomaterials from their production through to their processing into well-defined archtectures and finally to applications, with a focus on composites and the energy transistion.

Biography

I hold the Morgan Advanced Materials/Royal Academy of Engineering Research Chair in Carbon Materials in the Department of Materials. Together with Dr. Bissett, Dr. Vallès and Prof. Young, I lead the Advanced Nanostructures Group which spans the Henry Royce Institute and the National Graphene Institute.  I have held previously EPSRC Challenging Engineering  and EPSRC/RAEng Research Fellowships.  I moved to Manchester in 2006, having previously worked as a PDRA and studied for my PhD in Materials Science at the University of Cambridge and getting my BSc(Hons) in Physics at the University of Durham.

I am Head of Research for the School of Natural Sciences.
