Visiting the Bristol Center for Functional Nanomaterials, dr. Braniste learned about the self-assembly of biological materials and their investigation using X-ray and neutron scattering form Dr. Annela Seddon, who is a leading researcher in the field and the director of the BCFN.

Following the discussions with Dr. Duncan Casey, Industrial Fellow at BCFN, dr. Braniste was familiarised with best practices on technology transfer training available at University of Bristol.
