Summary
Hannah is a PDRA working with Professor Milo Shaffer in the Nanostructures Composites Group.
Her current research aims to develop fibres from de novo peptides. Previous projects in the group have included functionalising carbon nanomaterials for several applications, from protein crystallisation to conductive elastomers for energy devices. Her research has also included developing printable solution-processable thermal and photochemically curable nanoparticle composites as high k dielectrics.
Hannah studied Chemistry at the University of York and completed her PhD in Chemical Engineering in 2013 at the University of Bath.
