Research Areas & Focuses

Loughborough University has extensive expertise in biofilm research, with a strong track record of funded projects, securing grant funding from the EPSRC and NBIC for biofilm-related projects in recent years.
 
Their research focuses on the following key areas:
 
1)Bio-inspired slippery antibiofilm surfaces: Developing innovative surfaces that prevent biofilm formation.
 
2) Multiscale biofilm mechanics: Understanding and tackling biofilms at different scales to improve removal strategies.
 
3)Multiscale biofilm imaging: Utilizing advanced techniques to visualize biofilms in detail across different scales.
 
4) Biofilm modeling: Creating computational models to predict and optimize biofilm control strategies.
 
5) Developing novel antibacterials: To irradicate and combat formation of biofilms.
