The University launched a video last year highlighting the excellent research taking place here at Salford and this is now available online.
Presented by BBC North West weather presenter and meteorologist Clare Nasir, the two-and-a-half minute package provides an overview of the world-leading research at the University and how it impacts the world around us. 
Professor Nigel Mellors, PVC Research & Enterprise, said: “At the University of Salford, we excel in many diverse areas of research from computing, health sciences, aeronautics and biomedicine, to acoustics, media, disaster management and robotics.
“Linked to our Research Strategy, the aim of this video is to raise the profile of research at the University of Salford.”
The video covers a number of areas of research that are currently taking place at the University.
It includes the recent notable achievement in environmental research – the award-winning aerosol valve, which is used to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Cutting edge DNA analysis and groundbreaking technology is also being developed to track and monitor wildlife in their natural environment.
Nigel added: “Our world-renowned research into sustainable housing, classroom design and design against crime is supported by our strong links and partnerships with the community and has a positive impact on family and social interactions.
“In addition, our vital research into dementia care and “Living Well with Dementia” is leading the way in dementia-friendly hospitals and care homes.”
Research into assistive technologies also features in the video. This includes gait analysis, prosthetics and orthotics, which continue to make a marked difference in the health and wellbeing of patients around the world, along with the ground-breaking advances that our researchers are making in rehabilitation, biomedical and biomechanical research and diagnostic imaging.
The video highlights the University’s partnerships, with organisations including the BBC, Bentley, Ministry of Defence, Dyson, CISCO, Greater Manchester Police, Reckitt and Benckiser and Vicon.
