Dr. Jiashen Li is a Lecturer in Textile Science & Engineering in the School of Materials. His research interests involve the science and technology underpinning processing-structure-property relationships in functional fibers and textiles; including nano fibres, bio-functional fibres, smart fibres and textiles, e-textile, and structural fibre-composites. With more than ten years’ experience on fibre spinning, he has significantly expanded his studies of advanced functional polymer fibres and textiles. Dr Jiashen Li obtained his PhD in Polymer Materials (Physics) from Tianjin University (China) in 2001. He then spent thirteen years conducting biomaterials and fibre spinning in The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (Hong Kong), before joining the University of Manchester in 2015.
