Returning to work at the University of Liverpool my primary goal is to synthesis and study specific polymers and their properties in order to target various applications from medical devices to rheology modifiers. I am also part of a team which supervises a PhD student giving them guidance and support to achieve their doctorate. I am expected to report my findings in reports, presentations and meetings frequently throughout each month.
