While in Oxford, Dune was part of the Materials for fusion & fission power program.{{Cite web |title=Materials for fusion & fission power |url=https://gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=EP%2FH018921%2F1#/tabOverview}} He led the Micro-mechanical modelling techniques for forming texture, non-proportionality and failure in auto materials program at the Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford between October 2011 and June 2012,{{Cite web |title=Micro-mechanical modelling techniques for forming texture, non-proportionality and failure in auto materials |url=https://gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=EP%2FI021043%2F1}} when he moved the grant with him to the Department of Materials, Imperial College London from June 2012 until it ended in March 2015.{{Cite web |title=Micro-mechanical modelling techniques for forming texture, non-proportionality and failure in auto materials |url=https://gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=EP%2FI021043%2F2}}

He also led the Heterogeneous Mechanics in Hexagonal Alloys across Length and Time Scales (HexMat) program, which was Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) funded at a value of £5 million between May 2013 and November 2018.{{Cite web |title=Heterogeneous Mechanics in Hexagonal Alloys across Length and Time Scales - UKRI |url=https://gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=EP%2FK034332%2F1}} Dunne was the director of the Rolls-Royce Nuclear University Technology Centre at Imperial College London. He is part of a £7.2 million program on Mechanistic understanding of Irradiation Damage in fuel Assemblies (MIDAS) that is funded by Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council until April 2024{{Cite web |title=MIDAS-UKRI |url=https://gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=EP%2FS01702X%2F1}}

As of November 2022, Dunne is a professor of Materials Science at Imperial College London and holds the Chair in Micromechanics and the Royal Academy of Engineering (RAEng)/Rolls-Royce Research Chair. He is also a Rolls-Royce consultant, and an honorary professor and co-director of the Beijing International Aeronautical Materials (BIAM).
