Launch meeting for the CrEAM - Critical Elements and Materials - Network

Scientists are developing the smallest possible one-dimensional (1D) materials called 'extreme nanowires'.

University of Birmingham scientists are paving the way to swap the lithium in lithium-ion batteries with sodium, according to research published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.

As scientists explore the possibility of a superconductor capable of operating at room temperature, some superconducting phenomena are still not fully understood. Dr Mark Laver, a Birmingham Fellow and Senior Lecturer in the School of Metallurgy and Materials, has made a significant breakthrough.

What a year it has been at UBRacing! The team competed at both Formula Student UK and Germany, finishing 6th place overall at FSUK making 2018 a highly successful year. Read the team's full post-competition review here.
