The Bernal Institute hosts a multidisciplinary team of world-leading materials scientists and engineers at UL. Bernal research focuses on the synthesis (making), characterisation (measuring) and design (inventing) of nano, meso and macro structured materials. 

Bernal strives for its research to be disruptive and to deliver transformative solutions that will change forever the way society and industry operate.

Bernal represents a €100m+ investment in world-class characterisation, modelling and manufacturing facilities concentrated in 20,000 m of high quality research space.  
 

Our Vision

TO BECOME THE LEADING INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR THE SCIENTIFIC DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE OF STRUCTURED MATERIALS TO MEET GLOBAL CHALLENGES, PARTICULARLY IN THE AREAS OF
HEALTH, ENERGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT.

Our Mission

BY DEVELOPING DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO HEALTH, ENERGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT, WE WILL CREATE A LEGACY OF SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENT IN STRUCTURED MATERIALS RESEARCH THAT BENEFITS FUTURE GENERATIONS.

Efforts to harness Bernal’s research strengths led to the
establishment of four research clusters. Bernal’s four research
clusters are:
• Molecular & Nano Materials (MOL)
• Bio Materials (BIO)
• Composite Materials (COMP)
• Process Engineering (PROC)

We host 3 national translational research Centres: SFI’s Synthesis and Solid State Pharmaceutical Centre (SSPC), and Enterprise Ireland’s Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Technology Centre (PMTC) and the Dairy Processing Technology Centre (DPTC).
