Members

Our research group is multi-disciplinary and as such we embrace members from different technical backgrounds and with different levels of experience and interests. Core Members are those more closely associated with the activities of the group. Adjunct Members are members from Middlesex University who have a main role in another research group. External Collaborators are colleagues from external organizations who collaborate with us on a regular basis, some on a more advisory role.
