She is actively engaged in various research projects and collaborations aimed at achieving net-zero goals in construction.

Cise Unluer is a Professor of Engineering at the University of Manchester, specializing in sustainable construction materials. Their research focuses on developing low carbon cements and recycled aggregate concrete to reduce the environmental impact of construction. Unluer's work explores the use of alkali-activated materials, such as geopolymer nanocomposites and reactive MgO cements, for 3D printing applications. They investigate the rheology, strength, and carbonation behavior of these materials, aiming to enhance their performance and sustainability. Research also includes life cycle assessments and CO2 utilization technologies for construction materials, emphasizing the role of microbial induced carbonate precipitation and brucite in improving cement-based blends.
