Jess Gwynne

Teaching Professor

As Director of Undergraduate Teaching, my responsibilities involve working with our Teaching Associate and the rest of the Teaching Committee to coordinate, develop and run our undergraduate course.

I give lecture courses on a range of aspects of Materials Science, including Non-Metallic Materials, Electronic Properties of Materials, and Biomaterials.

Before taking on my current role, I spent several years carrying out doctoral and post-doctoral research within the Cambridge Centre for Medical Materials. My work focussed on polymeric spinal disc replacements, collagen fibres for ligament and tendon regeneration, and bone regeneration scaffolds.

I am also a fellow at St Catharine’s College, where I am the Director of Studies for Materials Science.
