Miodownik's scientific research is primarily in Materials Science, Metallurgy[3][4][5][6] and Biomechanics.[7][8][9][10][11][12][13]
Broadcasting
Miodownik is widely known for his broadcasting and outreach work. In 2001 he gave a series of talks at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) on aesthetics in the arts and sciences.[14] In 2003 he co-founded the Materials Library, a website for people working in materials science, with a grant from NESTA.[15] In 2005 he organised two talks at Tate Modern on the influence of new materials on the arts.[16] In 2006 he and two other scientists produced AfterImage, an installation that explores light and colour perception, which was exhibited at the Hayward Gallery.[17] In 2007 the Materials Library made a podcast, "What can the matter be?", hosted by the Tate.[18]
He was one of the judges of the 2008 Art Fund Prize.[16] He often gives talks at the Cheltenham Science Festival, of which he is a member of the advisory group. In 2010 he placed 89 in a Times list of the 100 most influential people in science [19] and delivered that year's Royal Institution Christmas Lectures. The three-part series, Size Matters,[20] looked at how size influences everything, including the shape of the universe, and aired on BBC Four in late December.[21]
Miodownik has done work with the Tate Modern, the Hayward Gallery, and the Wellcome Collection. He has close ties to the Royal Institution of Great Britain and presented a Friday Evening Discourse in February 2013 entitled "Strange Material".[22] His television appearances include Wonderstuff on BBC Two in August 2011,[23] The How it Works series on BBC Four in 2012 [24] and The Genius of Invention on BBC Two in early 2013.[25] He also appeared as a regular guest on Dara Ó Briain's Science Club on BBC Two in late 2012.[26]
