Rebecca Notman Group
Our research interests lie in the modelling and simulation of a range of systems that have important applications in materials science, biomedicine and pharmaceutical science. Current topics include advanced materials for drug delivery and biomedicine, bio-inorganic interfaces, biological membranes and the structure of the skin and transdermal drug delivery.
