Academic Staff: Dr Morgan Alexander, Dr Stephanie Allen, Dr Jonathan Aylott, Dr Jonathan Burley, Professor Martyn Davies, Professor Saul Tendler, Professor Phil Williams

The Laboratory of Biophysics and Surface Analysis is a multi-disciplinary group investigating fundamental and applied biomolecular, biomaterial and (bio)formulation problems at nano and micro scale to the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, among many others.

Biophysics explains the biological functions of cells, tissues and organisms in terms of the structure and behaviour of biological molecules. Surface analysis underpins many developments in micro and nanotechnology, particularly in the area of healthcare.
