Honorary Research Associates

Dr Robert Cook - Honorary Senior Research Associate

Bob's research interests lie at the interface between science and art-history.  He has been exploring the physical characteristics of some organic yellow pigments with a view to understanding the impact on the manufacture and use.  He is also researching enhanced, easily applicable techniques for the identification of proteinaceous media in paint cross-sections.  The surface composition and properties of the sections will be studied to suggest ways of optimising the rate and uniformity of dye penetration into the layers.

Chin-Tao Wu completed her PhD at University College London in 1997 and is currently a Research Fellow at the Institute of European and American Studies, Academia Sinica, where her publications can be viewed in detail.
