Protecting critical infrastructure from extreme space weather and radio jamming
Through space-based communication research we’ve influenced public policy and security. Our algorithms help keep GPS systems functioning and accurate.

Through space-based communication research we’ve influenced public policy and security. Our algorithms help keep GPS systems functioning and accurate.
Our researchers are developing unique lab-on-chip technology for faster and more accurate detection and diagnosis of COVID-19.
We’ve developed assessment and strengthening techniques for ageing concrete bridges and structures. Our guidance is used by consulting engineers worldwide.
Dr Neil Hindley has been awarded funding for a five-year Independent Research Fellowship that could lead to more accurate whole-atmosphere models.
We're developing the first ‘smart concrete’ in the UK, using encapsulated bacteria to make structures that can heal and repair cracks and defects themselves.
Our methodologies can predict energy usage profiles and peak demand by monitoring only ~ 0.01% of the substations in an electricity distribution network.
