In collaboration with colleagues from University of York, and elsewhere, we have helped to develop techniques for analysing sequences of collagen in ancient bone which shed light on important phylogenetic relationships that were previously inaccessible using traditional DNA dating techniques.

The Department of Materials Science has selected a paper co-authored by MML's James Elliott as the research paper of the month of September.

A new paper on cellulose by Mudrika Khandelwal and Alan Windle was published in the International Journal of Biological Macromolecules.

A new paper by Mudrika Khandelwal and Alan Windle discusses the origin of chiral interactions between cellulose nanowhiskers.
