📌 This is a competitive DLA scheme with multiple projects - if you’re interested or want to know more, feel free to get in touch!
🤝 Co-supervised with academic collaborators and industrial partners
🇬🇧🇮🇪 Open to UK / ROI applicants only
🔗 Project details & application info:
le.ac.uk/study/resear...
This EPSRC DLA project focuses on early transition metal complexes & their application as CO2 conversion catalysts, linking organometallics with green chemistry.
You’ll gain hands-on experience in:
• organometallic synthesis
• homogeneous catalysis
• sustainable chemistry
• energy storage materials
🚨 PhD alert 🚨 Exciting opportunity to develop titanium-based catalysts for bio-derived carbonate materials. Fully funded EPSRC DLA PhD studentship (4 years), based in my group at @leicesterchem.bsky.social.
🧪 More info: le.ac.uk/-/media/uol/...
🗓️ Deadline: 7 February 2026

Massive thanks to the @ukcatalysishub.bsky.social and the organisers for the invitation to #UKCC at @lborouniversity.bsky.social
A fantastic meeting - supportive, welcoming, and a timely reminder of just how central catalysis still is across science and industry. Easy to forget that sometimes...🙃
According to Keir Starmer, the New Year’s honours recognise people “who put the common good ahead of themselves to strengthen communities” with “quiet dedication” – yet higher awards went to party hacks and poorly performing executives.
Full story in the new Private Eye, out now.
Morning lecture @leicesterchem.bsky.social & windy ride to @lborouniversity.bsky.social for #UKCC2026 … looking forward to the next 3 days!

Congrats to Sarah Lamorte for passing her PhD today! Many thanks to Drs Mark Chadwick and @fabortu.bsky.social for doing the honours #vivaforever
A challenging project on titanium complexes and CO2 catalysis - tackled with real tenacity, skill and passion - & exciting papers on the way. Nicely done!
Great trip to @keeleuniversity.bsky.social today to present our latest research at their Chemistry Seminar... somehow I didn't take any photos?! Thanks to Charlie Creissen for the invitation and great to see Pete Matthews, @kjhaxton.com and @cshchem.bsky.social and others.

Pickets across the country. A march through Leicester.
Hundreds of jobs on the line.
We’re not standing by while the sector burns.
We will continue to fight.
Congrats to all involved for yesterday!
