Over 50 members of the Advanced Materials Research Group attended our Research Day on 11 April 2016. This included Researchers, PhDs, PDRAs and Supervisors. The day proved to be valuable in terms of shared learning and networking. Prizes were presented to the winners in each category. The day also confirmed what a huge amount of talent we have in our group and was enjoyed by all.
