Sensing and Measurement is possibly the most fundamental scientific capability required and utilised by society. It impacts on all areas of life, from health and well being through design and manufacturing; security, transport, communications; to lifestyle and entertainment. Students will become part of a world-leading, multidisciplinary research community, based in Edinburgh and Glasgow Universities, that spans physics, engineering, chemistry and beyond. Research topics include, but are not limited to: sensor modalities including electromagnetic, optical, chemical and electrochemical, mechanical and vibrometry; biomedical and healthcare sensors, systems and applications; micro and nanofabrication of sensors; integration of sensors and sensor arrays with advanced electronics; sensing for lab-on-a-chip and lab-in-a-pill applications.
