3D imaging: nanotechnology and the quest for better medical sensors - Audio
Episode 1
Wednesday, 21 March, 2012

The smaller the scales we want to look at, the bigger the tools we need to use, and with complex equipment of this magnitude, it is becoming more and more common for research groups to share central user facilities. Focusing on UCL's use of central user synchrotron radiation facilities (sub-atomic particle accelerators), this lecture will highlight developments in the 3D imaging of nanomaterials in the ultimate quest for creating better medical sensors.
