Developing slippery covalently attached liquid-like coatings. I create patterns of these surfaces with variable wetting and adhesion properties and coat them onto different materials. I am also interested in how they can elucidate the more complex properties of droplet adhesion.

I am an experimental researcher and am happy to discuss problems and find solutions with stakeholders. I am open to all forms of collaboration, including PhD student support, UKRI grant support and small investigative projects.
About
Research focuses on materials and surface science, with emphasis on wetting, droplet dynamics, liquid-like and slippery coatings, patterned interfaces, and metamaterial-based surfaces for controlling adhesion, friction, fouling, icing, and fluid transport.
