Congratulations to Caroline for having won an EU Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship! The fellowship will fund her for two years to ‘enhance her career development and prospects by working abroad’. Caroline has done a PhD on organic LEDs and during her fellowship will be looking at novel uses of OLEDs in biophotonics.

A new technique, discovered by researchers at the University of St Andrews and Harvard Medical School, which delivers light deeper into human tissue than previously possible, could help heal wounds faster. Thin flexible optical fibers and waveguides using biocompatible polymers, such as lactic-acid based polymers and photo-crosslinkable hydrogels, have been developed by the team, which … Read more
