Professor Michael Bowker has worked in both industry and academia. He is currently Deputy Director of the Cardiff Catalysis Institute (CCI), and is a senior member of the UK Catalysis Hub network, working both at Cardiff and at RCAH, Harwell. He has been involved in research across a spectrum of activities in heterogeneous catalysis, nanoscience and surface imaging/reactivity, ranging from selective oxidation catalysis and photocatalysis, to atomic resolution imaging, to nanofabrication. Recently his focus has shifted to catalysis applied to environmental protection, including energy storage and is part of a European consortium aimed at storing solar energy in a chemical form (mefCO2, http://www.mefco2.eu).
