Michael Robert Kelly
About
Michael Robert Kelly works as a Ph.D. candidate in the FACET research group at the Department of Material Science and Engineering at NTNU. His research involves wet chemical synthesis of epoxy-based nanocomposite coatings for use in anti-fouling applications. Epoxy-based coatings with additions of inorganic nanoparticles such as graphene and graphene oxide could potentially reduce the accumulation of marine organisms.
Background:
Michael Robert Kelly has a Master’s degree in Physics and Mathematics from NTNU (2021). The title of the thesis was “Monte Carlo Simulations and in vitro Studies on the Effects of Polysaccharide Conjugation on Enzyme Immobilization”, with Rita de Sousa Dias as supervisor.
