"The pre-sessional English course gave me the confidence to succeed."
Rou-Jing Chen is studying for an MA in Art Psychotherapy Practice at Sheffield Hallam University. To prepare for her studies, she took part in the university’s pre-sessional English course - and it made all the difference.
Auxetic Space Creation and Organ Retraction Device for Laparoscopic Surgery
This project is working with a team of surgeons and an NHS business development manager to devise novel mechanical expansion mechanisms for an innovative new device – the LaparOsphereTM - for space creation and organ retraction in laparoscopic surgery.
Auxetic Materials for Sports Impact Protection
This project is focussed on developing new and improved impact protection materials and is part of a wider collaboration with the Centre for Sports Engineering Research and also Manchester Metropolitan University. A process to produce large area or volume isotropic, anisotropic and gradient one-piece auxetic foams is being developed, foams produced and characterised for their mechanical and impact response properties. Significant reductions in peak acceleration are being found for the auxetic foams relative to their conventional counterparts.
