Thermoelectric Network UK Meeting

Adindu presenting his poster

On the 14^th and 15^th February 2017, thermoelectrics researchers from the UK, Europe and Japan gathered in Manchester, UK for the spring EPSRC Thermoelectric Network UK Meeting. The programme encompassed the full range of thermoelectrics research, from fundamental materials studies, to updates from industries already using this technology. Prof Derek Sinclair was an invited speaker, and gave an overview of the different thermoelectric research strands here at Sheffield. He was joined at the meeting by Lloyd’s Register Foundation/Royal Academy of Engineering Fellow Rebecca Boston, research associates Whitney Schmidt and Brant Walkley, and PhD student Adindu Iyasara, who presented a poster on his doped strontium titanate research.

Although this was the final Thermoelectrics Network UK meeting, it is hoped that the strong links which have been created between the various global groups will be maintained in the future.
