Mobile World Congress (MWC) is the largest mobile event in the world, bringing together the latest innovations and leading-edge technology from more than 2,400 leading companies, assembling today’s visionaries to explore the hottest topics influencing the industry. Next week, over 100,000 people will descend on Barcelona, looking for the next big thing in mobile technology. Amongst the […]
One year into her PhD Fiona Porter talks about her experience in the Graphene NOWNANO Centre for Doctoral Training programme (CDT), and the importance of public events to engage people with science. Having been introduced to nanochemistry during my Masters project at the University of Oxford, I wanted to continue in this area for my PhD, […]
The Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre demonstrated impact of the commercialisation of graphene and 2D materials at the two-day event, organised by the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) in partnership with ADNOC and MASDAR. Chief Executive Officer for Graphene@Manchester, James Baker, and members of the Graphene Engineering and Innovation Centre (GEIC) attended the first […]
Announcing new investments into graphene commercialisation in March’s Budget, Chancellor George Osborne described the material as a “great British discovery that we should break the habit of a lifetime with and commercially develop in Britain”. As the new business director for the National Graphene Institute (NGI), which has its new £61m building opening here at […]
Sara Lowes unveiled her original graphene inspired composition Graphene Suite during Graphene Week 2015. Graphene Week is an annual gathering for international leading experts on graphene and two-dimensional materials, creating Europe’s most influential conference. Organised by the Graphene Flagship, the conference provides a platform for the graphene academic community to present the latest scientific results, outstanding […]
The superlative properties of graphene – the world’s thinnest material, ultra-strong, highly conductive, and many more – are becoming increasingly well known. However, as a recent estimate suggested there are more than 600 different types of graphene, commercial organisations looking to work with the material can struggle to know where to start. To address this […]
This is a blog by Dr Cinzia Casiraghi, a Reader in Graphene and Carbon Nanostructures at The University of Manchester. She is also the Chairperson of Graphene Week 2015 and was the recent recipient of the Marlow Award. One day, back in September 2005 I received my first graphene sample. The box contained a small […]
