Gavin Moves to Birmingham Business School

Gavin has moved to the Birmingham Business School at the University of Birmingham, after more than a decade of interdisciplinary work in the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences, most of it as a researcher in the School of Metallurgy and Materials.

He says his work will continue to span the physical and social sciences, since the challenges around materials criticality need both science and strategy to be understood. Working from the Business School will allow him to build the interdisciplinary footprint of the Birmingham Centre for Strategic Elements and Critical Materials more effectively, while continuing to collaborate with colleagues in Engineering and Physical Sciences.

Gavin thanked friends and colleagues in the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences for their encouragement, and said he looks forward to growing collaborations in the College of Social Sciences.
