Industrial Partners Meet with DTC Students

Students from the Doctoral Training Centre presented their latest findings to our Industrial Partners at a meeting held on the 23rd of September 2011. Members of the 2009 cohort presented posters on the progress they have made since starting their projects in May 2010 (see photos of the lively poster session - coming soon).

Seasons Greetings

 

With the year coming to an end, we can take stock of the last twelve months. Our 3rd Cohort of 14 students started in October and once again have gelled together very quickly. They are well into their initial 6-month training period and have got stuck into all the activities such as brainstorming and lab rotations.
