The Brogan Group – Extreme Biomaterials
In June of 2019, I joined the Department of Chemistry, King’s College London , as a Lecturer (Assistant Professor). More details on my group can be found at our website:
Between 2014 and 2019 I was a Research Associate in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College, London . Previously I was a member of the Centre for Organized Matter Chemistry at the University of Bristol, where I also received my PhD under the supervision of Prof. Stephen Mann FRS.
My research is in the development of new protein-based biomaterials for non-aqueous biocatalysis. The main focus of which will enable us to move from an oil-based economy to a bio-based economy. Essentially, nature has many tools for the utilisation of biomass for the various building blocks of life. However, the processes are far too slow to be used in their current form to make the fuels, chemicals, and plastics we require for modern living. The question, which my research aims to answer, can we make biol
