Originally posted by James Baker on LinkedIn The isolation of graphene in 2004 was a seminal breakthrough. Pioneers Sir Andre Geim and Sir Konstantin Novoselov sparked a global science revolution – a continued journey of discovery producing a range of breakthrough applications – from graphene-enhanced concrete that reduces CO₂, to a revolutionary hydrogel for vertical farming, […]
Last weekend (16-17th of November) saw ten teams of multi-disciplinary backgrounds, from across the UK and Europe, work through the night to design, prototype and pitch a product incorporating conductive graphene inks. Teams would print, wire and code their ideas into reality over the 24-hour long competition hosted at the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC). […]
Nathan Feddy, a Research Technician at the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) at The University of Manchester talks us through a typical day commissioning equipment at the University’s second building dedicated to graphene and 2D materials research due to open at the end of 2018. The first three months working for the GEIC have been […]
We spoke to Dr Qian Yang, Royal Society Research Fellow in The University of Manchester’s Advanced Materials team. Manchester’s Advanced Materials team focus on solving some of the world’s most critical problems, by developing new and existing materials for the future. As the birthplace of graphene, the revolutionary one-atom thick material, Manchester researchers lead the […]
Nick Parker, a newly recruited Digital Marketing Officer for the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences at The University of Manchester, writes about his perspectives on the Graphene Week Industry Workshops. I arrived early on the morning of the fourth day of Graphene Industry Workshops, but the conference space at the National Graphene Institute was […]
