Next-generation printing inks
We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated person to join our research team, BonLab (https://bonlab.info), at the University of Warwick as a PhD researcher to work on a fully funded (home fees + stipend) 4-year project in the area of sustainable polymer and colloid science. Read more
Modular DNA nanopores for synthetic biology
The aim of this project is to develop artificial cells that can programmably communicate. In biology, cells are miniature factories where different compartments handle specific tasks. Read more
Light-activated DNA nanomachinery
DNA is an ideal material for building nanomachinery. it is responsive to stimuli, biocompatible, and can be programmed to assemble into structures of specific sizes and shapes. Read more
Biobased Monomers for a Defossilised Speciality Polymer Industry
Modern life is impossible to imagine without polymers providing solutions to many critical functions and as part of everyday products, (e.g. Read more
Degradable Polymer Coatings for Sustainable Packaging
Plastic packaging persists in the environment and is difficult to recycle. There is a growing demand for alternative materials to use as containers for liquids. Read more
