Our Technology Transfer Office is based in Research and Innovation Services (RIS) at the University of Bath. Our world-leading researchers have developed new technologies, innovations and products which we have protected and are available for licensing and commercial development. Please get in touch with us if you:

• are interested in licensing a technology
• would like to find out more about a particular technology
• want to stay informed about a specific area of interest
• are an investor and would like to consider the suitability of investing in any of the technologies

Novel Ornivol Compounds

Depression, especially treatment-resistant depression, remains a significant unmet clinical need. Researchers at the University of Bath have designed a series of compounds combining the beneficial effects of buprenorphine and naltrexone for the treatment of poly drug abuse, anxiety and depression.

Temperature stable vaccines

We have developed an award-winning method to protect biopharmaceuticals at room temperature, in particular vaccines, potentially removing the need for cold chain storage.

Novel vaccine adjuvant

We have developed a platform technology with application for vaccines against infectious disease. The researchers have shown a profound molecular adjuvant effect by generating a novel conjugate vaccine based on a unique microbial immune evasion protein.

Nanoparticle coatings

We have developed nanoparticle coating for alkali-metal vapour containers (Photonic and photonic materials). Alkali-metal vapour containers are a core component of many quantum optical technologies including atomic clocks, ultra-sensitive magnetometers and quantum computing elements. Our researchers have developed a rapid and cost-effective method to overcome the difficulty of controlling the vapour density in confined geometries using gold nanoparticles.

Foam Filtration Technology (Nanotechnology)

We have developed the next generation gaseous filter, capable of being moulded into any shape and delivering superior filtration capability. The foam comprises high-temperature durable active foam the composition of which can be optimised for diverse applications in air filtration.

Pyroelectric Oscillating Heat Pipe (POHP)

Oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) are compact cooling equipment used for various applications such as renewable energy systems and cooling electronic devices. We have developed a novel technology combining OHP’s with pyroelectric harvesting enabling the conversion of temperature fluctuations directly into electrical energy.
