She has been at NPL for 14 years and worked on numerous projects in the field of nanoscience. Her multidisciplinary background was useful, allowing an expansion of her research portfolio in the area of nanomaterial characterization in different scientific disciplines, for example, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and nanotoxicology. Before joining NPL, she was a research associate at Imperial College London, then University of Glasgow. She got her PhD in electrochemistry from University College London. She is a Chartered Scientist, Chartered Chemist, and member of the Royal Society of Chemistry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 320\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 9.3 x 6.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 04, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47381598470393,"sku":"9781118753590","price":168.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/m28L13pivT9781118753590_6627b59d-0afd-4639-82f3-87234a630055.webp?v=1770087310","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/nanomaterial-characterization-an-introduction-hardcover-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
