What we study

Recent student projects in this lab have studied materials protection, developing 3D-bioprinted biofilm coatings for steel that reduce corrosion, and adjusting the bioink so the biofilm stays stable over several weeks.

Project 3D Bioprinted Approach to Biofilm-based Corrosion Control Coatings

The research develops 3D‑printed biofilm coatings that stick to steel and reduce corrosion by over 50%. It adjusts bioink properties to keep the biofilm stable and protective for up to eight weeks, aiming for an eco‑friendly industrial solution.
