Materials Chemistry; Neutron & X-ray Scattering Science

 

I am Professor and Associate Head of School – Research in the School of Chemistry at the University of Sydney. I am also affiliated with the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering at the Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Technology (ANSTO), which reflects the fact that my research into inorganic solid-state chemistry makes particular use of neutron and synchrotron X-ray scattering methods to characterise the structures and dynamics of new materials.
