      Hi!

      No flying cars from me, sorry!
      Hopefully with my experiments I will help to improve the health of people around the world.

      Hi again, Mineing HD
      In the short term, I hope my work will give us phone batteries that run for 5–10 times longer or can be that much smaller.
      Longer term, I’m working on how we can get nanomaterials and biology to play together. This relates to everything from skin protection to smart medicines that behave the right way for everyone and have fewer side effects.

      Hi, thanks for the question!

      I’m afraid I won’t be able to make flying cars either but that would be awesome…! My experiments will hopefully help to develop a new antibiotic which could stop a lot of people from being sick and maybe even stop them dying. We really need new antibiotics as the ones we do have are not always effective.

      No flying cars unfortunately! Hopefully some new medicines though!
