Europe-wide survey among employers shows that for graduate recruitment soft skills are as valued as sector-specific and computer skills

Language Skills Important in Graduate Recruitment

RNase-Resistant RNA Nanoparticles
Modified RNA that is resistant to RNase could be the key to future RNA-based nanotechnologies

Self Assembly of Nanoscale Ropes
Diblock copolymers that self assemble into rope-like helices developed with good control over length and internal structure

Chemical Approach to Graphene Nanoribbons
Bottom-up synthesis of conjugated graphene nanoribbons up to 40 nm with defined structures has been developed

Single Molecule Imaging of Hotspots
Electromagnetic hotspots on optically lit metallic surfaces shown to be highly localized by Brownian Emitter Adsorption Super-resolution Technique (BEAST)

Converting Wasted Heat Into Electricity
Nanostructured material exhibits high thermoelectric figure of merit that is expected to convert 14 % of heat waste to electricity

How Do Atoms Interact With Surfaces?
Measuring the van der Waals forces between atoms and surfaces with precision could help development of nanodevices

New Frozen Smoke Material
New, ultra-light form of "frozen smoke" — renowned as the world's lightest solid material — with amazing strength and an incredibly large surface area
