Course content

We welcome applications from students who want to research the following areas:

• ligand design and synthesis
• metal ion coordination chemistry
• organometallic chemistry and homogenous catalysis
• bioimaging applications including fluorescence and MRI
• chemical synthesis for sustainability
• polymer synthesis and characterisation
• nanoparticle synthesis and characterisation
• applied spectroscopy and electrochemistry

Our inorganic chemistry research groups design, synthesise and develop the applications of metal coordination complexes containing both main group and transition metals. With its diverse applications, our group is at the interface with other scientific disciplines, including other chemistry sub-disciplines, physics, materials engineering, pharmacy, biological and medical research making it an excellent research area for all postgraduate research students.
