Challenges and approaches in assessing the interplay between microorganisms and their physical micro-environments (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Author(s) Spatial structure over scales ranging from nanometres to centimetres (and beyond) varies markedly in diverse habitats and the industry-relevant settings that support microbial activity. Developing an understanding of the interpla... Read More about Challenges and approaches in assessing the interplay between microorganisms and their physical micro-environments.

A Click Chemistry Strategy for the Synthesis of Efficient Photoinitiators for Two?Photon Polymerization (2020)
Journal Article

It is reported that efficient photoinitiators, suitable for two?photon polymerization, can be obtained using the copper catalyzed azide/alkyne cycloaddition reaction. This click chemistry strategy provides a modular approach to the assembly of photoi...

Soil aggregates by design: Manufactured aggregates with defined microbial composition for interrogating microbial activities in soil microhabitats (2020)
Journal Article

Differences in the structure of microbial communities are reported to exist between the inside and outside of soil aggregates, but the impacts of soil aggregation on microbial activity in soils, essential for soil health, have proven difficult to stu...

Discovery of (meth)acrylate polymers that resist colonization by fungi associated with pathogenesis and biodeterioration (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Authors. Fungi have major, negative socioeconomic impacts, but control with bioactive agents is increasingly restricted, while resistance is growing. Here, we describe an alternative fungal control strategy via materials operating passivel...

A Reactive Prodrug Ink Formulation Strategy for Inkjet 3D Printing of Controlled Release Dosage Forms and Implants (2020)
Journal Article

We propose a strategy for creating tuneable 3D printed drug delivery devices. 3D printing offers the opportunity for improved compliance and patient treatment outcomes through personalisation, but bottlenecks include finding formulations that provide...
