Welcome to our Bioadhesion and Biofouling Research Web site. |
||
|
The overall aims of our research are to understand the settlement and adhesion processes of algae and to apply this fundamental information in the evaluation of the properties of anti-fouling and fouling-release materials developed by our collaborators in international programmes funded by the EC and the US Office of Naval Research (ONR) |

AMBIO, the EC-funded
Integrated Project on the use of nanostructured surfaces to
control biofouling by non-toxic mechanisms. The AMBIO web-site contains a short video illustrating one output from the AMBIO project. It was made for non-specialist audiences to illustrate how nanotechnology can aid the development of an environmentally-friendly coating technology. |
