#MondayMaterials 6th June 2016
Welcome back, everybody! It’s been three weeks since the last #MondayMaterials. After that trip to the HMXIF, we paid a visit to the Design, Fashion, and Business research grouping to chat with Claudia Henninger. Here’s what she had to tell us: Hi Claudia.

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.

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.

We originally scheduled an interview […]

It’s time for Episode 18 of #MondayMaterials, everybody! Thanks for joining us once again. We’re with Rosy Boardman today.

I first met Meera Dulabh when I was preparing to go down to an event at the Museum of Science and Industry in which she would be displaying her cutting edge work alongside some equally impressive collegaues. Unfortunately, I fell ill on that day so I missed out on the festivities and you guys missed out on […]

Can you believe it? Episode 16 of #MondayMaterials is here already! And after fifteen previous episodes, I finally get the chance to talk to Dr Sarah Haigh, somebody who was recommended to me by our Episode 1 interviewee. It took a while to get this interview into both our calendars, but I can tell you […]
