“I’m looking right down into the material at the thousands of minute crystals that make up steel. Each of these crystals has a unique atomic arrangement within the metal, but by manipulating this arrangement, I’m hoping to reorient the crystals in the perfect position to make the steel much more ductile.” Dave continues: “Steel has been used for thousands of years, but there’s still so much to find out. That’s what’s so great about materials science, there’s always more to discover.”
