Academics<\/h1>\n

Flagship Research Projects<\/h2>\n

Graphene Research<\/h3>\n

Graphene research spans a range of disciplines, with new areas of exploration being discovered all the time.<\/p>\n

Graphene is just one aspect of advanced materials research at Manchester.<\/p>\n

Biomedical Materials<\/h3>\n

Accelerating a new generation of “smart” biomaterials that improve health and wellbeing. This includes two grand challenges: restoring biological function with minimal invasiveness, and new, low risk, cost efficient therapies<\/p>\n

Dr Alex Casson<\/h3>\n
\n
\"Alex<\/figure>\n

Dr Alex Casson is a Reader (Associate Professor) in the Materials, Devices and Systems division of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Manchester. His research focuses on non-invasive bioelectronics interfaces. He particularly focuses on precision devices for closed loop bioelectronic interventions: those which are tailored to the individual by personalised manufacturing via printing; and tailored interventions by adjusting treatments using data driven responses\/outputs from real-time signal processing. Dr Casson’s ultra low power sensors work is mainly for medical applications. Read more\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
