Lidija is Professor of Nanoscale Science at the School of Engineering, working on carbon capture research. As nanoscale scientists, Lidija and her team investigated sea urchins who trap carbon dioxide from the air and grow bones very rapidly.

Professor Siller’s many successes include co-invention, scale up, technology transfer and licencing. With a Chair in Nanoscale Science, Professor Siller has recently developed two important innovations and business partnerships to full commercialisation. The first innovation outlined has enormous and global-reaching potential in combating the impact of climate change.
