Liam Grover

Professor Liam Grover is a leading academic in Chemical Engineering at the University of Birmingham, where he serves as Head of School. His research in Biomaterials Science focuses on:

• Tissue regeneration (bone, skin, and interfaces)
• Hydrogel and cement materials development
• 4D printing applications in medicine
• Mineralization control mechanisms

Recent publications highlight his work in bioprinting skin analogues, smart bone repair polymers, and DNA-templated synthesis. Collaborations span from EPSRC-funded projects to industry partnerships like AstraZeneca.

His research has received multiple NUS Green Impact awards (Bronze, Gold, Platinum) for sustainable laboratory practices. As a Co-Investigator in major grants, he leads work on injectable hybrid hydrogels and antimicrobial fluid gels, with technology transfer potential to orthopedics and wound care.
