College of Engineering, Mathematics & Physical Sciences showcase

25th February 2011, 09.00 – 16.00, Harrison Building 

The Showcase provided a broad overview of the diverse research being carried out in CEMPS and who is doing it. Following a welcome by Professor David Butler, the Heads of Disciplines or their representatives talked about research in their areas:

  • Professor Tim Naylor – Physics
  • Professor Dragan Savic – Engineering
  • Professor Keke Zhang – Mathematics
  • Professor Richard Everson – Computer Science
  • Professor John Coggan – Camborne School of Mines
  • Dr Ian Summers – Medical Imaging

Lunch was an opportunity for networking and informal discussions about potential areas for collaboration.

Those who were interested then had a fascinating tour of the laboratories, starting in the Harrison building with visits to the new Centre for Additive Layer Manufacturing (CALM - currently being constructed) & X-AT Materials Laboratory, Malaria Diagnostic Tool, Electronics Clean Room, Structures, Materials & Concrete Laboratories, Thermodynamics & Fluids Laboratories and Microscope Suite. After a quick tea break, the tour moved to the Physics building to see the Multiphoton Imaging Laboratory, the new Graphene Centre and the Astrophysics Group’s telescope.
