Biotechnology and Craniofacial Sciences (BACS)
The BACS Group comprises a diverse and talented multi-disciplinary team of specialists with a single focus: to refine facial reconstruction from planning to completion and write a blueprint for the management and correction of craniofacial deformities. Beyond the core group, there exists an established and still increasing network of collaborators and partners across the international arena, from academic, health and commercial backgrounds. Research is both laboratory-based and clinically grounded. Much of the work involves the entire patient pathway and, as a consequence, is translational in its nature and effect.
Within this single theme, there are two strands: Imaging and Bioengineering. In maintaining both strands, the aim is to utilise different approaches, interests and skills
