The Lumen Lab

Shout out to @beamingViviene who spent yesterday presenting at the @newscievents event at the @ExceLLondon on her work on #space #laser communications for #satellites!

The Lumen Lab has its first spin-out! #Ryme is a new start-up based in Nottingham, developing next-generation #climatetech for @ARIA_research. We’re still early stage, so watch this space!…

Amazing stuff! Looking forward to seeing what the programme can do! Our own @PalavaNet will be working one of the projects here. More details to follow...

Really excited to be starting this journey with @RAEngNews! I'll be based in @TheLumenLab @UniofNottingham researching satellite laser communications while helping to make ultrafast global internet a reality. #RAEngResearch

Interested in doing a fully-funded #PhD (Sept 2024) in #photonics, #nanofabrication, #metamaterials and #sensing at the @UniofExeter? How to apply: exeter.ac.uk/study/funding/… Deadline: 26th July 2024 Please get in touch: c.williams15@exeter.ac.uk @FindAPhD shorturl.at/5g04F

Congratulations to Tasneem Yousif for her prize-winning poster on RF interference and geolocation at the @UniofNottingham Engineering Research Showcase!

Three alumni started a satellite manufacturing company called @ExoboticsUK. 2020 they won their first funding; 2022 they delivered their first satellites; 2024 they are on a mission to make space accessible to everyone. @IfMCambridge @ngab91 @PalavaNet eng.cam.ac.uk/news/satellite…

@beamingViviene and @PalavaNet got to visit @durham_uni for their one-day conference on #space #optic. Very exciting to see the work being done in cutting-edge technologies from IR imaging to laser communications.

@KevinFWebb @rebecca_penguin PS: Cochleas are the spiral things on the left and right. :-)

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your cochleas! Thank you to @KevinFWebb for lending us his brain for MRI scanning and @rebecca_penguin for her MRI wizardry. Looking forward to using this valuable data for helping to develop the next generation of cochlear implants.

Congratulations to @beamingviviene for receiving the "Best Student Prize in Instrumentation" from the Worshipful Company of Tin Plate Workers for her work on high energy lasers while at @RutherfordApLab and @CityUniLondon!

We're hiring! The Lumen Lab at the University of Nottingham is looking for a PhD student to work with @PalavaNet developing a miniaturised optics module for wearable monitoring of key biological variables such as blood oxygen. Learn more here: lumenlab.uk/phd-biomedical…

Fantastic to be at the #UKSpaceConference with @PalavaNet and @beamingViviene and to catch up with some of the amazing engineering being done across the UK!

Thanks to a generous grant from @FutureBloodTech, TheLumenLab.uk is going to be developing a wearable ear camera for monitoring of blood analytes. Shout-out to our partners at @SENSElabCamb @PalavaNet #WebbLabGroup @beamingViviene @UniofNottingham

Excited to be supporting an @esa @ESABICUK project with @ExoboticsUK developing the next generation of space environment simulators for nanosatellite missions!

@PalavaNet @ExoboticsUK @QuantumGenMat Congratulations!

GM! It takes a village. The whole @ExoboticsUK team has been proud to support this project for @QuantumGenMat and we’re excited to see the amazing things they will do with GenMat-1. In no particular order, a shout-out to some of the people who’ve been part of this journey.

Last week, we went to @SpaceParkLeic for Cosmic Coffee sponsored by @ESABICUK. Had fun having conversations with fellow space enthusiasts! 🌌☕️ @PalavaNet @beamingViviene @ExoboticsUK
