Research interests

Overview

In the Bio-Nano-Sensing lab (see our website here), our research focuses on the engineering of molecules and nanomaterials to create the next generation of sensors and technologies for use in the food and drink industry, defence and biomedicine. We synthesise and study responsive molecular fluorophores, plasmonic and luminescent nanocrystals, and develop functional interfaces between materials chemistry and biology. In particular we utilise cross-reactive arrays of sensor materials in our work to mimic the mammalian sense of taste or smell and ‘fingerprint’ our sensing targets or measure and categorise complex mixtures, such as blood or whisky.

With collaborators in Chemistry (Farnaby), the James Watt School of Engineering (Clark, Zare-Behtash), Strathclyde University (Jimenez, Ward), UCL (Lee), across Europe (von Wolff, Cortés) and at UMAss Amherst (Rotello) and the University of British Columbia (Algar), my group are currently synthesising and characterising materials for improved near-patient blood testing for liver diseases; building cross-reactive sensing arrays for sensing in the food and drink industry; and tailoring nanoparticle surface chemistry to sense and measure bacteria.

Current Projects

  • Fluorescent nanoparticle assemblies for protein and nucleic acid sensing
  • Colorimetric and luminescent sensing arrays for detecting liver disease
  • Lanthanide-containing polymer nanoparticles for multimodal imaging
  • Nano-surface chemistry for bacterial detection
  • Utilising fluorescence as a sensor tool in aerospace and catalysis

Available Positions

We are a small but growing group, and we are always interested to hear from qualified, enthusiastic researchers at any career stage who share our interests. Funded Summer Placements, PhD and PDRA positions will be advertised on my web pages, and on jobs.ac.uk or findaphd.com as appropriate. If you wish to apply for a fellowship then please get in touch, suggesting funder and attaching a brief (≤ 3 page) CV in PDF format.  

Biography

I am a Senior Lecturer and UKRI Future Leaders Fellow working in the School of Chemistry. After work with Dr Martin Grossel and Professor Harry Anderson FRS at the University of Oxford for my MChem, I moved to London to undertake a PhD in Chemistry at UCL (Professor Ivan Parkin), as part of the SECReT CDT, for which I was awarded the Ramsay Medal.

I then won an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowship and Royal Society International Exchange Grant to undertake 2 years of postdoctoral work with Professors Claire Carmalt and William Rosenberg (UCL/Royal Free Hospital) and Professor Vincent Rotello (UMass Amherst), and subsequently a Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the University of British Columbia with Professor Russ Algar. I joined the University of Glasgow in 2018 to begin my independent career as a Lord Kelvin Adam Smith Fellow, and was appointed as Lecturer in 2022, and Senior Lecturer in 2024.

Expertise
