ABOUT THE PROJECT

Boron is a versatile element.
Our research aims to improve its applications and open doors to future technologies.

UNDERPINNING RESEARCH PLATFORM

Understanding and predicting the chemistry of borylated molecules.

RESEARCH AREAS

Three divergent and cross-fertilising research areas are being tackled.These research areas directly contribute to the EPSRC themes of: Healthcare Technologies, Manufacturing the Future and The Productive and Resilient Nation.

Boron Medicines

Creating boron-based medicines that can be controlled to release the active drug in the right place and at the right time.

Chemical manufacturing

Creating borylated reagents that can be easily stored and transported, but switch to their reactive form when needed.

Smart materials

Creating boron-based materials for devices like OLEDs that are highly stable, efficient, and durable.

We collaborate closely and share our work with our industry partners.
