An investigation into the mechanistic interactions between sustainable fragrances and proteins employing in silico and in situ methods
This is a BBSRC funded Industry CASE Studentship between University of Liverpool Department of Chemistry and Unilever. Fragrance oils are widely used across the household care industry. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) Luminescent supramolecules for applications in data storage
Quantum computing is a paradigm-shifting computation that has the potential to revolutionalise the way we store, process and compute complex data and is set to transform the digital world, as we know it. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) 2D Confinement of atomically precise metal nanoclusters and their uses in water filtration
Atomically thin 2D nanomaterials, known for their exceptional mechanical and optoelectronic properties, are typically produced via exfoliation, taking advantage of strong intralayer bonds over weaker interlayer interactions. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) Mechanosensitive Nanochannels
Nano- and Angstrom-scale capillaries have been studied intensively because of their importance in many natural phenomena and use in numerous applications. Read more
