Dr Dun Liu obtained his BSc degree (Opto-information Science and Technology) from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (P.R.China) in 2008, and Ph.D in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Dundee (UK), which switched his research to the ever fast emerging and expanding nanoscience and nanotechnology area. He is now a Postdoctoral Research Assistant continuing his Ph.D work in carbon nanotube biomedical applications with Prof Sir Alfred Cuschieri in the Surgical Technology Group, the Institute of Medical Science and Technology (IMSaT) at the University of Dundee.
