#MondayMaterials Episode 11 – Professor Stuart Lyon
Welcome back, everyone – and thanks for continuing to follow the series. I was introduced to this week’s interviewee by Delia Vazquez, a previous #MondayMaterials star. In fact, she introduced me to a whole host of people during a recent School of Materials coffee morning, so you can expect to hear this story again and […]

#MondayMaterials Episode 12 – Dr Christopher Blanford
I first came across Dr Christopher Blanford’s name a few years ago. I worked for the Faculty of Life Sciences in my previous role at the University, and in that role I used to help look after the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology’s website. Christopher is a research group leader within that institute, and I clearly remember […]

#MondayMaterials Episode 14 – Professor Constantinos Soutis
Hello all – and welcome to the final #MondayMaterials of 2015! Yes, I know there’s a few Mondays left in the year yet, but after 14 excellent episodes I figured the series deserves a Christmas break. Don’t worry, though, we’re ending on a high point. Professor Constantinos Soutis (Costas) is a Professor of Aerospace Engineering, […]

In fact, after interviewing the amazing Victoria Magrath […]

#MondayMaterials Episode 20 – Professor Bill Sampson
As we are, somehow, already at the 20th episode of #MondayMaterials, we thought we’d celebrate the landmark with something a little bit special. So today we’re bringing you a fantastic interview with our very own Head of School, Professor Bill Sampson. I’ve been lucky enough to chat with Bill on various occasions now, and it’s […]

#MondayMaterials Episode 21 – Dr Andrew Thomas
Last time out with #MondayMaterials we hit the big 2-0 while speaking to Prof Bill Sampson! 20 episodes since the launch of our blog last May and it seems like only yesterday to me. I’ve learnt a lot in that time, though, particularly regarding how the research within the school works. We have several research […]

#MondayMaterials Episode 22 – Dr Sarah-Jane Clelland
Welcome back everyone. It’s been three weeks since #MondayMaterials met up with Andrew Thomas from Biomaterials, and today we find ourselves back in the same building. This time, though, we’re visiting the Henry Moseley X-ray Imaging Facility (HMXIF) to talk to their Project Officer, Dr Sarah-Jane Clelland. I was introduced to Sarah-Jane by Chris Blanford, a former […]
