The BioEffective Surfaces for Transport (BEST) Network aims to understand the challenges and advance the development and deployment of antimicrobial materials for transport and the built environment, ensuring improved safety and cleanliness.

​

We are an exciting multidisciplinary community of UK scientists, engineers, transport professionals, technologists, industrialists and regulators, aiming to enhance hygiene strategies and deploy evidence-based antimicrobial surface treatments in transport and the built environment. 

​

 The network is led by Manchester Metropolitan University and Queen's University Belfast, funded for 3 years by the Engineering and Physical Sciences

Research Council (EPSRC). 

 

Join us in shaping the future of antimicrobial solutions.​
