Come and take a PEEK at cartilage resurfacing with me TriboUK My research explores the biotribological characteristics of functionalised PEEK for focal cartilage resurfacing Check it out! #MedTech #hydrogel #kneeimplant #orthotwitter #tribology #medicalresearch

Great showing from all the Engineering at Leeds Tribology PhDs TriboUK. Thanks Imperial Mech Eng for hosting this year.

Elated to have won the first place poster prize TriboUK hosted by Imperial Mech Eng! Great tribology conference - thanks to the organisers and presenters! #biotribology #MedTech

Here's me holding a synthetic brain courtesy of OrganA! A really cool startup developing high accuracy organ analogues poised to replace animal/human models during surgical training and medical device development! #MedTech #brain

Great posters by my colleagues at Leeds @SaadetYenigul and Sarah Crossland! Check them out!
