Research Background: PhD and initial post-doctoral research on the use of NMR to study biological molecules and their interactions. Subsequent diverse experience in the pharmaceutical industry (GSK) applying solid state and liquid state NMR and MRI to drug polymorphism, drug receptor characterization, and drug action in biological models of disease.
Research Interests
Current interests focus on solid state NMR to characterize biomaterial structure using cell culture methods and isotope labelling, but also including drug product and timber product characterization.
Teaching
Supporting undergraduate and postgraduate research projects.
