Professor Jamie Quinton serves as Head of School for the School of Food Technology and Natural Sciences at Massey University. With an extensive publication record spanning from 1997 to 2025, Professor Quinton maintains an active research program while holding significant leadership responsibilities within the university structure. Professor Quinton's research spans multiple disciplines with a strong focus on nanotechnology, surface science, and materials characterization. Their work demonstrates particular expertise in carbon nanomaterials, plasma processing techniques, and the oscillatory adsorption behavior of organosilanes on various surfaces. The research portfolio includes significant contributions to understanding carbon nanotube manipulation, mineral surface characterization, and advanced manufacturing techniques including laser direct energy deposition and microwave sintering. The 15 most recent publications reveal a dual research trajectory: continuing strong contributions to nanomaterials science and surface chemistry while increasingly engaging with higher education leadership topics. The publications span high-impact journals across physics, materials science, chemistry, and education policy domains, demonstrating interdisciplinary reach. Recent work shows growing interest in vortex fluidic processing techniques for nanomaterial manipulation and characterization of mineral surfaces relevant to industrial applications. Professor Quinton's collaborative approach is evident through extensive co-authorship networks across multiple institutions and disciplines. The research has practical applications in sensor development, advanced manufacturing, mineral processing, and higher education administration.
