Sunlight in a Box: How fixing contaminated drinking water can help vulnerable communities

Kevin McGuigan (Professor, Royal College of Surgeons Ireland)

Kevin's talk will show how contaminated drinking water can be treated using a transparent container and a little bit of sunlight and how this can improve health, family finances, child development and education in vulnerable communities across Africa, Asia and Latin America.

Portable Diagnostic Testing using Spinning Discs

David Kinahan (Assistant Professor, Dublin City University)

Amongst others, Portable Diagnostic Testing is important combating the impact of climate change (food security) or the next global pandemic. Testing from complex samples like blood or a plant leaf can be very challenging. This talk will describe how spinning CD sized chips about their axis can be used to miniaturise all the steps in a normal lab down to a suitcase sized portable device.

Understanding the Differences in Microstructural Evolution between Additively Manufactured and Conventional 18Ni(300) Maraging Steel upon Post-Processing Heat Treatment

Shahrzad Sajjadivand (PhD Student, University College Dublin)

This study aims to optimise post-processing heat treatment methodology of 18Ni(300) Maraging steel manufactured via Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF). Based on conventionally produced 18Ni(300) steel as a control and baseline, a novel heat treatment methodology has been developed for AM maraging steels.
