 | A Very Merry Christmas from all of us.. |
 | Automotive research; one of our specialities Open today's door to find out more about automotive research and the development challenges facing the fuels, oils and lubricants industries here... |
 | Fragment Screening; the new kid on the block In the past two decades, fragment based drug discovery has emerged as a powerful method for the pharmaceutical industry to discover and develop new drugs. Find out about Diamond's Fragment Screening facility here... |
 | BioSAXS...What the heck is that? Solution small angle X-ray scattering (also known as protein SAXS or bioSAXS is a powerful tool for analysis of the structure of proteins in solution. Find out more about this vital techniques here... |
 | What becomes of the broken heart valves? A heart valve opens and closes, subjecting it to pressure loading and unloading. Artificial heart valves must be able to withstand repeated cycles of tensile loading and unloading in realistic biomedical conditions. Read more here... |
 | Making the skies safer A team from Rolls Royce used Diamond to test the durability or their Trent 1000 fan blade. Read more here... |
 | Crucial Characterisation of Catalysts Platinum group metals play a crucial role in a variety of applications and in particular for a host of catalytic applications. Diamond is involved in providing a better understanding of their mechanism and behaviour here... |
 | Early Cancer Screening Understanding the micro-biological changes leading to the onset of cancer is vital to develop methods for early diagnosis and new treatments. Read more here... |
 | Reducing Car Breakdowns in Winter The “freezing” of diesel fuel in winter has been a problem since its inception. Wax crystals nucleate and grow and block fuel lines and filters which can lead to vehicle failures and motorists being stranded. Read more here... |
 | Perfecting medicines Medicinal products extracted from biological sources must be carefully produced to ensure that only high purity active material is generated. Researchers are using Diamond to understanding and control variants that occur during manufacturing here... |
 | Harnessing the sun's powerful rays Silicon photovoltaic cells are very expensive and intrinsically difficult to manufacture on a large scale. Read how researchers are using Diamond to produce more efficient and environmentally friendly solar cell technology here... |
 | Pills, powders and potions Discovery and development of new drugs is a long, complex and expensive process. Diamond plays a central role in this process helping to identify new targets, understand the processes involved and refining formulations. Read more here... |
 | Oil Research We remain reliant on fossil fuels for our current and future energy supply and one of the greatest challenges facing scientists today is to make the most efficient use of our resources. Read more about how Diamond is involved here... |
 | Hearts, hips and healthcare Hip replacements, heart disease, Alzheimers disease and cancer are all hot topics and Diamond is at the forefront of the research that is trying to tackling these life changing conditions. Read more here... |
 | Food for thought... From what's contained within it, to how it's prepared, to how it's packaged, consumers are demanding more from the food they purchase. Find out how Diamond is involved here.... |
 | Tackling Environmental Issues Whether it's toxic waste disposal or solar panels, hydrogen storage or climate change, Diamond is at the forefront of environmental research. Find out more here... |
 | Pushing the boundaries of Engineering Innovation and advanced design approaches by engineers can solve complex real world problems. Find out how Diamond is involved in creating novel concepts that push performance boundaries here .... |
 | Energy Research Did you know that scientists researching future energy solutions use Diamond’s facilities to develop and refine new energy technologies? Find out more here... |
 | Automotive Research With so much competition out there, automotive manufacturers have to be at the top of their game and we can help them to do this. Oil, lubricant, catalyst and structural component research are all things we have experience with. Read more here... |
%20copy.2020-02-21-14-18-01.JPG) | Planes and Rockets and all things Spacey Here in the Industry Team we are experienced in assisting the Aerospace industry with their research. From paints and fuels, to engine parts and structural components, our applications are many and varied. Read more here... |
%20copy.2020-02-21-14-18-01.JPG) | What areas of Industry do we work with? The research areas which can apply synchrotron science are many and varied. Here we highlight a selection of the most popular research areas and details some of the synchrotron applications. Find out more... |
 | Which techniques are available? So what can you do at Diamond? Open door number 3 to find out how we can help you with your experimental design, data collection and data analysis. Find out more... |
 | So what is Diamond? Here you can find information about what Diamond is, how synchrotrons work and what they can be used for. Find out more... |
 | Meet the Team Let's kick off the first day of this festive period by introducing ourselves. The Industrial Liaison Team is made up of 8 team members. Find out more about us here.... |
