Welcome

The Brennan Research Group is comprised of professors, graduate students, undergraduates, and staff. Our primary research goal is the investigation of cell mediated bioadhesion. Our materials academic focus is on the structure of the interphase between the cell and the substrate.

Our research in the area of biofouling has led to the development of the first known attachment model. The model has been demonstrated effective at predicting the attachment to our patterned surfaces by two different organisms, e.g., Ulva linza zoospores and Cobetia marina bacteria. The model is based upon a thermodynamic approach to bioadhesion.

We welcome you to visit our site to learn more about our research and the people behind it.
