Unravelling the geological and organic history of the Moon and Mars
The planetary bodies of the solar system are geologically complex worlds on a global, regional and local scale. The Moon and Mars are dominated by primary silicate minerals and a range of mineralogical by-products together with frozen volatiles and organic molecules. Read more
Robotic Tendrils for High-Density Laser Light Delivery in Lung Cancer Therapy
Research Group:
School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
Lung cancer is the most deadly form of cancer worldwide, and there is an urgent need for new, less invasive treatment options. This project aims to develop a novel approach that combines nanoparticle-mediated laser therapy and soft robotics to destroy lung tumours. Read more
