UK Catalysis Hub researchers including; Prof. Richard Catlow, Prof. Graham Hutchings, Prof. Christopher Hardacre and Prof. Andrew Beale are collaborating with Prof. Anatoly Zayats from King’s College London to investigate steering of chemical processes with plasmonic nanostructures. This multidisciplinary research programme combines the expertise of King’s and Imperial College London and UK Catalysis…
Addressing the rising levels of anthropogenic CO2 in our atmosphere is a major scientific challenge. The Yang group has focused on capture, concentration and conversion of CO2 using electrochemical techniques. The seminar will discuss thermodynamic considerations for electrochemical CO2 reduction, including considerations for designing selective and low overpotential transition metal…

We are looking for a highly motivated post-doc to work on a project at the chemistry-biology interface looking to improve the sustainability of chemical synthesis. The project seeks to design new metalloenzymes using unnatural amino acids or synthetic cofactors and to apply these catalysts in selective chemical synthesis. Initially these metalloenzymes…
We seek to recruit a highly motivated and talented PhD student in the School of Chemistry at the University of Glasgow to work in a multidisciplinary project within the research groups of Dr Gibson (web) Dr Laia Vilà-Nadal (link to LVN-group’s website). The successful candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary…
We have an exciting vacancy for a Senior Computational Scientist in the Scientific Computing Department (SCD) to join the team developing modern Materials and Molecular Modelling packages on High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms. You will focus on the porting to and optimisation of such codes on accelerators, especially GPUs. The work forms part…
Introduction Catalysis research has had a major positive impact on the UK economy. Evidence for this is provided by the over 60 impact case referencing catalysis or biocatalysis studies submitted to the 2014 REF exercise. Case studies involving catalysis and biocatalysis span Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, Agriculture, Pharmaceuticals, Built Environment, materials…
