Hydrogels are crosslinked polymers that contain large amounts of water. We have developed a novel hydrogel loaded with Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) which can be maintained as a liquid ex vivo and be injected into the affected tissue site where body temperature triggers in situ gelation.

In this work, we are using molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the principles by which highly anisotropic nanostructures nucleate and grow

We have extensive experience of incorporating clays into a range of petroleum derived polymers including polypropylene, polyamide, polyacrylates, polycaprolactone, polyvinylalcohol as well as biopolymers including starch, polylactic acid, chitosan and gelatin

Sheffield Children's Hospital identified a need to develop new equipment with Sheffield Hallam University to monitor the bone mineral density (BMD) in children less than four years old.

The REPLICATOR project started in March 2008 under the European Union's 7th framework programme, in the theme of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)

A software for automatically segmenting dissimilar regions in medical images acquired with magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography or ultrasonography has been developed and implemented

A successful completion of a ground-breaking project the GUARDIANS at the Mobile Machine and Vision Laboratory at Centre for Automation and Robotics Research at Sheffield Hallam University

A new project which brings humans and robots together could help firefighters tackle low visibility and, eventually, provide a robotic alternative to guide dogs for visually-impaired people

CARR includes years of experience with direct ('in-the-field') human robot interaction as well as assistive robotics and robotic machines and aids in dangerous or low-visibility conditions

The MINIMAN project concerns the development of a smart microrobot with five degrees of freedom and a size of few centimetres squared
