This should enable students graduating from the course to make an objective judgement of the scientific importance and technological potential of developments in micro- and nanotechnology. In order to cover material over a broad range of subjects in a comparatively short time, we have had to set quite a demanding timetable and we expect students to find the course quite challenging. However, we hope it will be interesting and will provide a first-rate introduction to this exciting and rapidly moving field. This course is running for the first time in 2004. A great deal of thought and effort has been put in to its preparation, but things are still certain to go wrong at some point in the year. We will address any problems as quickly as possible and encourage a constructive dialogue about the course structure and contents. Above all, we hope that you enjoy your time in Cambridge and that as well as being intellectually stimulating it will enable you to make friends and contacts which will support your future career for many years. 5 II Biographical details of course lecturers Mark Blamire BA (Cambridge, 1982) PhD (Cambridge, 1985) Dr Mark Blamire leads the Device Materials Group in the Department of Materials Science. His research is built around the deposition, microfabrication and measurement of thin film heterostructure devices. In particular the application of novel materials and advanced nanofabrication to create new types of functional device. His research spans a number of areas of current interest and includes studies of metals, oxides and nitrides; superconductors, ferromagnets and ferroelectrics, and device nanofabrication. Mark Blamire received both his first degree in Physics and PhD from the University of Cambridge. He has published over 250 research articles and is a frequent speaker at international research conferences. As well as directing the Master’s Programme in Micro- and Nanotechnology Enterprise, Dr. Blamire teaches a number of undergraduate courses and supervises six PhD students. Steffi Friedrichs, Dipl.

She did her undergraduate degree in ‘Diplom-Chemie’ at the Technical University of Braunschweig (Germany), and afterwards came to the UK to take a DPhil at the Inorganic Chemistry Laboratory at Oxford University, specialising in the synthesis and filling of carbon nanotubes and their characterisation using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy techniques. After her DPhil, she worked in Oxford as a Career Development Fellow and Tutor for Inorganic Chemistry at Hertford College. During this time, she completed a Diploma in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education. Mark Welland FRS FRSEng Professor of Nanotechnology, Director of IRC in Nanotechnology, Director of the Nanoscience Centre Professor Mark Welland started his career in nanoscience and nanotechnology at IBM Research Laboratories, Yorktown Heights, USA, where he was part of the team that developed one of the first scanning tunnelling microscopes. Upon moving to Cambridge in 1985 he set up the first tunnelling microscopy group in the UK in collaboration with Prof John Pethica. Mark has over 300 publications in the nanotechnology area. In a recent award by the UK Research Councils Mark has been made Director of an Interdisciplinary Research Collaboration in nanotechnology that, along with a purpose built facility, represents an investment of $35 Million for nanotechnology research at Cambridge. He is currently Editor-in-Chief of the Institute of Physics journal Nanotechnology, established in 1990, and, along with many other contributions at an International level, co-chairs the recently established Co- operative Research Initiative in Nanotechnology (CORINT) between the UK and Japan. In addition to his scientific work Mark has been involved in a number of reports dealing with the societal, ethical and environmental issues of nanotechnology and is currently a member of the Royal Society/Royal Academy of Engineering Nanotechnology Study Working Group that will report to the UK Government later this year. David Hasko Dr David Hasko is Assistant Director of Research at the Microelectronics Research Centre of the Cavendish laboratory; he came to Cambridge over 20 years ago after completing degrees in London.

His research interests include integrated micromechanical resonant structures for sensor and timing applications, micromachined devices for in-vivo monitoring, biological sensor systems and MEMS Design. He has contributed to the development of micromechanical inertial sensors, micromechanical resonator oscillators and capillary electrophoresis chips. He is a member of the IEEE. Andrew Flewitt Dr Andrew Flewitt is Lecturer in MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) in Cambridge University Engineering Department and is a Fellow of Sidney Sussex College. He is a member of the Electronic Devices and Materials Group and his research interests include silicon-based materials deposited at low temperatures over large areas, silicon nanowires, and novel materials and processes for producing MEMS devices, with particular reference to the integration of polymers in devices. Dae-Joon Kang Dr Dae-Joon Kang is a senior research fellow at Cambridge Nanoscience Centre, UK. He is a core project leader in nanofabrication for the IRC in Nanotechnology. His current research activity focuses on the development of novel methods of nanofabrication so as to make new types of materials and devices. He has been actively involved in a wide spectrum of projects in Cambridge Nanoscience Centre from solid state devices to bionanotechnology to nanofabrication. He manages the projects recently agreed between Cambridge Nanoscience Centre and SAMSUNG electronics. He has published over 50 SCI journal papers on a wide range of nanofabricated devices and novel structures.

    Maxwell Centre Report 2018/19 “ The Maxwell Centre acts as a super-connector for the University ecosystem. Its programme provides access to expertise across disciplines, building partnerships and facilitating industry collaborations with the University of Cambridge world-leading researchers. The unique combination of discovery science, solution engineering and business insight enables the Maxwell Centre community to tackle global challenges.” Professor Andy Neely, Pro-Vice Chancellor for Enterprise and Business Relations 2 Maxwell Centre Report 2018/19 | www.maxwell.cam.ac.uk From the Director As the Maxwell Centre Director since the beginning on 2019 I would like to start by paying testament to my predecessor, Professor Sir Richard Friend. Populating a new building with such a diverse, effective and connected community is no mean feat and it is clear to me that it is Richard's vision, supported by Dr Aga Iwasiewicz-Wabnig and the Maxwell team, that has made Maxwell what it is today. Prof Sir Mark Welland My task in the next couple of years will be to ensure that FRS FREng FIET FInstP Maxwell Centre becomes an established and integrated Director, Maxwell Centre activity that offers a creative space for the best of Cambridge research to interact with the commercial world, nurturing new ideas so that they can grow into long term University-industry collaborations across Cambridge.

  • Cambridge Public Policy
    Centre for Science and Policy The Sciences and Technology in the Service of Society Annual Report, 2011 Dr David Cleevely, Founding Director and Dr Chris Tyler, Executive Director December 2011 The Centre for Science and Policy provides a unique pathway between academic research and public policy. By providing a neutral platform for debate and discussion, CSaP has enabled the development of many productive connections between researchers in the sciences and engineering and policy makers in government and industry. 2011 has seen the launch and expansion of our flagship Policy Fellowships Programme, and the delivery of many influential Policy Workshops, Distinguished Lectures and Professional Development Policy Seminars. In addition, the Centre has continued its support for Cambridge Public Policy and the establishment of a Master’s in Public Policy, and taken its first steps towards developing a research programme on the relationship between science and policy making.
