Dr Cristina Valles

Overview

I hold a BSc in Physical Chemistry and a PhD in Nanomaterials from the University of Zaragoza (Spain). After working as a postdoctoral researcher at the CRPP-University of Bordeaux (France) and ICB-CSIC in Zaragoza (Spain), in 2011 I joined The Department of Materials (University of Manchester) as a PDRA. In July 2019 I was appointed as 'Morgan Advanced Materials Research Fellow'. Together with Dr. Bissett, Prof. Kinloch and Prof. Young, I lead the Advanced Nanostructures Group within the Department of Materials and the National Graphene Institute.
My current research is focused on exploring the impact of carbon nanomaterials in applications such as nanocomposites and multifunctional textiles.
