Blast from the past!

I studied for a PhD in the Chemical Engineering Dept. at the University of Birmingham. On the back of facebook posts about my WCMT Fellowship, a former colleague invited me to give a Bill Innes Guest Lecture back in the Dept. Great to see some old faces (including my internal examiner), catch up on gossip and see the changes around the Uni and the Dept.

Final report available on WCMT web site

Invited lecture at Leicester

I had a great day last week - I was invited to give a lecture to the Engineering Department at Leicester University based on my Fellowship Gunshot damage to apparel fabrics and underlying tissue. I met with staff and postgraduate candidates; we're hoping we might do some collaborative research later next year :D
