Robert Barker's work focuses on the structure and behavior of biological membranes and surface films, using techniques such as neutron and X-ray reflectometry, atomic force microscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations. Recent projects have examined mucin and salivary films, bacterial and cartilage lipid membranes, and more applied topics like insect larvae bio-conversion and space nutrition. The research combines biophysical characterization methods with biological and biomedical applications ranging from disease-related membrane proteins to food and agricultural systems.
Publication output has been variable over the past decade, with a notable peak in 2021 followed by a marked slowdown from 2022 through 2025.
