Research Summary
|
|
Modelling of biomolecules, biomimetics and the interface between biomolecules and materials, across multiple lengthscales. Key research includes molecular simulations to explore the barrier and elastic properties of skin, biological membrane barriers and membrane transport, and the adsorption of biomolecules onto solid surfaces for a range of applications in healthcare and bionanotechnology.
