Welcome to the Elliott Group!

We are a multidisciplinary research group conducting both experimental and computational studies tackling problems across the areas of chemistry, physics and materials science.

On the experimental side, our work focuses on a variety of different sensing technologies, based on optical, mechanical and electrical transduction techniques, for applications in healthcare diagnostics, environmental monitoring and homeland security.

Our computational research is concentrated on modelling amorphous materials in order to investigate their physical properties in terms of their atomic structure and defects.
