"I've not felt like an apprentice. I've felt like a member of the team.' Brad – Junior Measurement Scientist Put simply, the National Physical Laboratory helps set the standards by which everything is measured – combatting issues on a global scale such as climate change, curing diseases and the development of cutting-edge communications technology. At NPL, ...

Put simply, we set the standards by which everything is measured. In doing so, the National Physical Laboratory is helping to combat issues on a global scale such as climate change, curing diseases and the development of cutting-edge communications technology. At NPL, we touch ordinary lives in extraordinary ways and you could too. Research sits at the very core of our business. Th...

You'll plan and deliver a number of technical activities to take our research to the next level. As we're pushing boundaries all the time, we'll expect you to acquire new knowledge to find solutions to advance our research. It's your responsibility to share your learnings so that we all benefit, mentoring those with less experience than you. Equally, if commercial opportunities arise from ...

PhD Vacancy All electronic devices and circuitry generate excess heat and thus require thermal management to improve reliability and prevent premature failure. In micro- and nano-electronics, heat is often a limiting factor for smaller and more efficient components. Graphene with its highest of any known materials thermal conductivity has the uppermost potential in thermal management...
