When we heard about some of the innovative and exciting research projects taking place at Bangor University we couldn't resist bringing the programme up to find out more about some of them. We're sure it will be a fascinating morning's listening for our audience.

Vice Chancellor, Professor John Hughes is interviewed on the Jamie & Louise programme on Radio Wales“Universities are home to all kinds of research – and a great deal of our research feeds in to different aspects of daily life in Wales. We also work closely with our local community so it’s fantastic to have the opportunity to invite Radio Wales listeners into the University like this,” said Vice-Chancellor Professor John Hughes, who took part in the programme.
