A major gift from our benefactor, Dr Yusuf Hamied FRS Hon FRSC Hon ScD, has enabled us to transform two research laboratories at the Department of Chemistry, creating exceptional spaces for scientific discovery while honouring two outstanding colleagues.
Researchers create new method to engineer stable antibody linkers
Dr Sona Krajcovicova and colleagues have developed an improved and more scalable method for producing specialised chemical linkers that enable antibodies to be engineered as precise delivery vehicles. The method, recently published in Nature Protocols, could support the development of more consistent and controlled medicines.
PhD Research Challenges Long-Standing Assumptions on Tyre Wear Emissions
Research by Siriel Saladin, a researcher within the Aerosol Science CDT, has been featured in a CDT case study, highlighting his work challenging a widely accepted assumption in air pollution science.
Cambridge scientists uncover how water behaves at the nanoscale

Scientists at Cambridge have helped resolve a long-standing question about how water behaves when confined to spaces just a few molecules wide, in work that could inform the design of batteries, fuel cells and nanofluidic devices.
