Philip John Withers (born May 1963)[2] is the Regius Professor[3] of Materials in the School of Materials, University of Manchester.[4][5][6] and Chief Scientist of the Henry Royce Institute.

Education

Withers was educated at the University of Cambridge where he was awarded an undergraduate degree in Natural Sciences (Physics) in 1985 followed by a PhD degree in the metallurgy of Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) in 1988.[7]

Career and research

Following his doctorate, Withers was appointed a lecturer at Cambridge before being appointed Professor at the University of Manchester in 1998.[8] His research investigates the application of advanced techniques to follow the behaviour of engineering and natural materials in real time and in 3D.[4][9][10][11]

In 2008 Withers set up the Henry Moseley Manchester X-ray Imaging Facility (MXIF),[12] which has extensive suites of 3D X-ray Imaging facilities. In 2012, Withers became the inaugural Director of the BP International Centre for Advanced Materials (ICAM) aimed understanding and developing materials across the energy industry.[13] ICAM is a collaboration between BP, The University of Manchester, The University of Cambridge, Imperial College London and the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign.[13]

With Bill Clyne, he is a co-author of the textbook An Introduction to Metal Matrix Composites.[14] His research has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).[15]

Awards and honours

Withers was elected a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering (FREng) in 2005 and a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2016.[16][17] In 2014, the University of Manchester was awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize, recognising Withers work at the Manchester X-ray Imaging Facility.

Psychological effects of Internet use

Various researchers have undertaken efforts to examine the psychological effects of Internet use. Some research employs studying brain functions in Internet users. Some studies assert that these changes are harmful, while others argue that asserted changes are beneficial.[1] Assertions American writer Nicholas Carr asserts that Internet use reduces the deep thinking that leads to true creativity. He also says that hyperlinks and overstimulation means that the brain must give most of ...
