Tilley Group
Welcome to the Tilley Research Group webpage.
Our group is world leading in the synthesis of the highest performing nanoparticle catalysts and medical imaging agents.
Our synthesis expertise allows us to engineer complex nanoparticle catalysts that with atomic level precision.
As Director of the Electron Microscope Unit you will use state-of-the-art electron microscopes that are the best in Australia to characterise cutting edge nanoparticles.
