The Cook Lab at the UCL School of Pharmacy

We’re a group of science geeks based in a cosy lab just off Brunswick Square in London, UK. Most of us are working on smart materials and automation for healthcare.

Our Science

We have two key themes across our activities

Smart Materials

  • Exploiting complex multicomponent materials
  • Developing novel stimuli-responsive macromolecules
  • Mucosal drug delivery

Automation

  • Rethinking formulation workstreams to automate
  • Self-driving laboratories with statistical experiment design
  • Custom hardware
