From molecular interactions to therapeutic innovation
Understanding Interfaces
Mechanisms of protein–material binding
We investigate the mechanisms governing how proteins interact with materials, and why they lose stability and function in complex biological environments. This understanding is the foundation for designing systems that perform reliably in real biological settings.
Predicting Behaviour
Computational design frameworks
Engineering protein systems is limited by our ability to predict how they behave. We develop computational tools that connect molecular features to interfacial behaviour, enabling rational, design-led engineering of biomolecular interfaces rather than trial and error.
Engineering Therapeutics
Nanostructured delivery platforms
Effective protein therapeutics need precise control over stability, transport and function. We design nanostructured and supramolecular platforms that protect their cargo and enable controlled delivery, turning our mechanistic and predictive insights into new therapies.
