Current Postdoc in the TAB-Lab at UoB. Former Oxford DPhil Student in the Booth group, Wolfson College, Bassoonist, Austrian, gamer, book-lover. he/him, π³οΈβπ
Oxford, England
Joined December 2011
More of my postdoc work has now been published in @ChemEurope. This was a super fun project to work on, and with lots of diverse and challenging synthesis, characterisation, crystallography and DFT!
π° The study of a homochiral perylene diimide dimer for sensing chiral anions is now out in @ChemEurope. Work led by Denis @DenisHartmann with contributions from previous MSci and MRes students Lucy and Jamie in the TAB-Lab @TabLabChem
