    Precision imaging for disease diagnosis

    "The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Research Centre at UNNC has been working with British and Russian partners to explore the use of hyperpolarised noble gas in imaging lung airspaces and has developed an advanced MRI technique that can form pictures of the airspace of lungs. This innovative method will enable earlier detection of lung diseases in an accurate and safe way."

    Recycling used plastics for a green industry

    "The modern day manufacturing industry uses plastics across almost every sector. Plastics have many benefits but the plastic wastes can cause serious environmental problems. Approximately only 9% of the world’s plastic waste is recycled each year and most of this is down cycled i.e. used to make lower value products. My research is working to keep the valuable plastic wastes out of landfills by creating a circular loop and enabling them to live another life as car parts or other high value products."
