Biography
I was born on the last day of 1967 in Glasgow, Scotland. After completing my early education in the West of Scotland, I moved to the University of Aberdeen in 1985 where I completed a BSc Honours Degree in Chemistry in 1989.
I then spent three years in the laboratory of Professor Sir Fraser Stoddart FRS, firstly at the University of Sheffield and then subsequently at the University of Birmingham, where I completed my PhD in 1992, with a thesis entitled Self-Assembly in Chemical Systems. A trip to Switzerland followed as a Royal Society European Science Exchange Programme Postdoctoral Fellow at the ETH, Zürich in the laboratory of Professor François Diederich. In mid-1994, I returned to the UK to take up a post at the University of Birmingham, first as Lecturer, then Senior Lecturer and, finally, as Reader, in Physical Organic Chemistry.
In September 2000, I moved to my current position in the Centre for Biomolecular Sciences at the University of St Andrews.
I was awarded the Saltire Society Scottish Science Award for 2005 and the Royal Society of Chemistry Bader Award for 2009.
