The ability to create tiny particles with dimensions around 10 - 10,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair with control over their shape, size, and composition, and therefore their properties, is a major global challenge of crucial significance to advances in many future technologies. Professor Manners has pioneered a new method that allows this to be achieved using simple polymer molecules via controlled crystallization in solution. Over the period of the C150 Chair he will develop and expand this approach to enable both fundamental scientific advances and applications in areas such displays, electronics, and biomedicine.

创造尺寸比人类头发宽度小10 - 10，000倍的微小颗粒并控制其形状，大小和成分以及其特性的能力是一项重大的全球挑战，对许多未来技术的进步至关重要。Manners教授开创了一种新方法，通过在溶液中控制结晶，使用简单的聚合物分子实现这一目标。在C150主席期间，他将开发和扩展这种方法，以实现基础科学进步和显示器，电子和生物医学等领域的应用。
