The development of reliable molecular scale building blocks for the construction of nanoscale devices is one of the greatest challenges for the development of numerous applications of these exciting materials. This research describes our efforts in t....

The science of carbon nanotubes and related materials. How can we use them to make novel hybrid structures?

The CDD Vault provides a secure collaborative platform for scientists to selectively share chemical and biological for neglected and commercial disease drug discovery applications.

Why is cloning such hot science? What are the potential benefits? And are there other ways of achieving them? What are stem cells, and why do many scientists say that embryonic cells are required for this work?

We can now expect to live longer than ever before, and if we get ill, we expect to be made better! However new threats continue to emerge.This presentation discusses tuberculosis and flu, new dangerous versions of old diseases, smoking and other life....

Darryl Ventura presents his research into developing functional carbon nanotube based materials.

Saino describes her success in developing electrochemical biosensors during her PhD course at Toyo University.

Studies of direct cluster nuclear transfer reactions to give information about angular momentum values in excited states of nuclei.

Take one step away from the shore with the Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books. Set yourself apart from the crowd on an expedition into unfamiliar scientific territory with the shortlisted authors and judges of the Royal Society Winton Prize....

Find out what we have learnt from the outbreak so far (March 2015) and what is being done to ensure continued resilience to epidemic scenarios.

How green are you prepared to be? Burning fossil fuel is choking our planet with carbon dioxide, but would you stop using petrol or allow wind farms to be built in your back yard? Is it finally time for renewable energy to stop being the alternative ....

We are faced with energy challenges and the promise of power with hydrogen. The fuel cell and solid state hydrogen storage methodologies are currently limited by materials and represent the cutting edge of energy technology. Implementation to a real ....

During his PhD thesis defence, Ankur looks at the ways in which various techniques are used for the creation of the desired structural characteristics of carbon nanotubes  

We are being watched. A bewildering array of sensors are remotely observing everything on earth, from crops in Africa to the car parked outside your house. Will these aerial observations help us to save the Earth, or is science beginning to see too f....

Piers Sellers in conversation with Rona Munro and John Zarnecki.  Little Eagles, written by playwright Rona Munro, tells the extraordinary story of Sergei Korolyov, chief designer and unsung hero of the Soviet space programme. Under the leadership o....

Sussex University has always supported unusual, interdisciplinary and innovative faculties. A good example of this was the Nitrogen Fixation Centre. Jeff Leigh was part of this exceptional work who's aim was to discover how nature uses nitrogen to cr....

How long can we live, and how long do we want to live? Why do we change as we get old, and is there anything we can do to stop it? In this video the panel discuss ageing and some of the recent remarkable scientific advances that suggest ageing may no....

We have synthesized different alkali metal peroxychromates and K3NbO8 doped with K3CrO8crystals based on rare oxidation state of Chromium (V).We have studied their spectroscopic properties using EPR and pulsed EPR. Coherent spin manipulation on Cr+5 ....
