In recent years and certainly since the COVID lockdown in 2020, we have discussed how we communicate whether and when we will be “closed”, be it through social media or web platforms or even through our employers. When AofA was launched 14 years ago, one of our main focuses was on mercury. Since then, aluminum has become a serious issue, largely thanks to the work of Professor Christopher Exley, whose tenure at Keele University in the UK ends in late August.
Professor Exley is creating a website where you can continue to follow and support his important work. We invite you to click in and SUBSCRIBE updates.

The Birchall Center
Welcome to the website of the aluminum research group. The group previously resided at Keele University’s Birchall Center from 1992 to 2021. We are currently looking for a new home. In the meantime we have set up this website to keep as many as possible informed about our research and research activities.
Our research
The unit started with three general topics, of which our group focus is Aluminum and Silicon in Biology. The group is led by Professor Christopher Exley, FRSB and the current research topics within the group are diverse, including metals and amyloids; Bio-silicification in plant species; Human exposure to aluminum, whether intentional (e.g. in antiperspirants or adjuvants) or unintentional; and hydroxyaluminosilicates.
