Professor Rachel Williams is Professor of Ophthalmic Engineering at the Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease at the University of Liverpool. The major aim of her research group is to develop advanced materials to address the growing burden of eye healthcare in the ageing population. Underpinning these developments is the design and production of advanced materials with key features that drive the biological response required to overcome the destructive nature of the disease. Two particular areas where the Linkam system is applied are in: 1) the design and development of novel materials for contact lenses and 2) the design of advanced gels to replace damaged corneas.
