Research
- Professor Ronan Daly leads the Fluids in Advanced Manufacturing research group. The mission in Institute for Manufacturing is to Manufacture a Better World. In FIAM, we carry out fundamental research into fluids, interfaces, biomaterials, nanomaterials and chemical systems as we create future device technologies and the advanced manufacturing techniques that make them, with a focus on driving affordability, accessibility, and environmental sustainability. This means we are linking Technology Push and Pull, thinking about the influence of manufacturing on fundamental research questions, and pioneering the science of scale-up. This research is currently most active in three sectors:
- Healthcare
- Agri-tech
- Inkjet printing/ Additive Manufacturing
