The Gourdon group belongs to the Biomedical Engineering Division of the James Watt School of Engineering and to the Technology Touching Life Theme of the Advanced Research Centre at University of Glasgow. We investigate the mechanobiology and tribology of biomaterials. Our lab focuses on three different projects: 

1 - Mechanobiology of the extracellular matrix in cancer.

2 - Biolubrication by natural and/or synthetic biopolymers.

3 - Characterisation and mimicking of the mineral-protein interface in inflammation.
