Dr Cristina Valles

Overview

Biography:

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), I joined The Department of Materials (University of Manchester) as a PDRA. In July 2019 I was appointed as 'Morgan Advanced Materials Research Fellow'.

My current research focuses on exploring the impact of carbon nanomaterials in applications such as multifunctional nanocomposites, multifunctional fibres and smart textiles.

I am deputy research lead for the Polymers & Composites theme at the Department of Materials, and member of the editorial board of Polymers, and Journal of Composites Science.
