PhD Studentships available: Metal Agents Against Cancer
Carl Redshaw obtained his PhD in Synthetic Inorganic Chemistry from The University of Newcastle upon Tyne. Following this Carl spent 1 year at Austin, Texas, USA, 18 months as part of the IRC at Durham University and two years with the late Professor Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson, FRS (Imperial College). Prior to taking up his current post in the School of Chemical Sciences and Pharmacy at UEA, Carl carried out research for four years at Imperial College, London as a Special Research Fellow (The Leverhulme Trust) and as a BP/EPSRC post-doctoral research associate.
Carl's principal research interests fall into four broad areas:
- Homogeneous Catalysis
- Co-ordination chemistry of calixarenes
- The use of metal agents against Cancer/Leukaemia
- Hydrogen storage materials
