Dr Britton specialise in experimental micromechanical characterisation, focusing on understanding deformation at the small scale with electron microscopy, simulation and micro-mechanical testing. This is funded through my RAEng Research Fellowship on "Better understanding of materials to make safer reactors". I also run the MSc in Advanced Nuclear Engineering at Imperial College and coordinate the MEng in Nuclear programmes (Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, and Materials). I am a member of the Engineering Alloys Group, the Centre for Nuclear Engineering, the Shell AIMS UTC, and the Rolls-Royce Nuclear UTC.
