Professor Randy M. Bruno is a neuroscientist at Oxford whose research seeks to decipher how the cerebral cortex is assembled from diverse cell types into functional circuits that mediate behaviour. His lab employs in vivo electrophysiology, cellular imaging, targeted manipulations, and computational modelling-particularly using the rodent whisker-barrel system-to probe how information flows across cortical layers and how thalamic inputs shape cortical computation. His lab is particularly interested in imaging dendrites in awake animals to understand the role of this subcellular structure in behaviour.
David Stuart
MRC Professor of Structural Biology
I use the techniques of X-ray crystallography and X-ray microscopy to study the structural biology of viruses.
Jin-Chong Tan
Professor of Engineering Science
I lead the Multifunctional Materials & Composites (MMC) Lab, where we develop nanoporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)
Robert Taylor
Professor of Condensed Matter Physics
I am interested in the optical properties of materials, particularly in the areas of nanotechnology and quantum computing.
Sarah Thomas
Associate Professor
My research interests are Photonic quantum technologies, Quantum networks, Light-matter interactions, Quantum memories
Alice Thorneywork
Associate Professor of Physical Chemistry and Royal Society University Research Fellow
Our research interests lie in the areas of experimental soft matter and nanoscale systems
Claire Vallance
Professor of Physical Chemistry
We employ novel time-of-flight imaging methods to study photon-induced and electron-induced molecular fragmentation processes and to carry out chemically-resolved imaging of surfaces.
Ian Walmsley
Director of the Oxford Quantum Institute
Research interests: Quantum information and computation; quantum materials; quantum optics and ultra-cold matter
Ben Williams
Associate Professor of Engineering Science
My research group develops and applies linear and non-linear optical diagnostic techniques to solve problems in thermofluids including heat transfer, mixing and combustion.
