Bioanalytical science
Within the Biomolecular Sciences Research Centre, the Bioanalytical Science Group (incorporating the Centre for Mass Spectrometry Imaging) carries out applied and multidisciplinary research related to the analysis of chemical and biological species in a variety of matrices.
Research Degrees in the Biomolecular Sciences Research Centre
In the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2014 staff from the BMRC were returned in the Biological Sciences unit of assessment (UoA5). Sheffield Hallam was the second highest ranking modern university in this UoA with 46% of our research being rated as world leading or internationally excellent (4* or 3*).
Auxetic Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering
This project is a collaboration between the Biomolecular Sciences Research Centre (BMRC) and MERI, initially funded by SCH, with further funding via a SHU VC PhD scholarship matched by an external biomedical devices company. The overarching aim of the project is to develop a range of ‘auxetic’ porous scaffolds for eventual tissue engineering applications, which mimic the mechanical properties of soft tissues, promote migration, adhesion and differentiation of cells, and enable delivery of bioactive components.
Controlled release wound dressings
