News
NPL is leading a £1.2 million project to improve the management of non-healing wounds in the NHS.
NPL is a potential project partner within the BiophotonicsPlus European Competition for Collaborative R&D.
Collaborative research into a protein associated with Parkinson’s disease explores a novel way of organising proteins at the nanoscale.
Criticality of Biomolecular Measurement
Biomolecular structure and function underpin all biological and pathological processes, ranging from host defence mechanisms to neurodegeneration.
The complexity of information associated with biomolecules and their interactions, across all time and length scales, imposes growing requirements for more precise and reliable measurements.
What we do
- Study and measure biomolecules in solution, in cells and in tissues.
- Extract new understanding and test hypotheses through measurement.
- Probe the benefits of different measurement techniques.
- Make measurement tools and methods more robust, comparable, sensitive, specific and accurate.
