We welcome enquiries from talented and commited scientists. The group works at the interface between Chemsitry, Materials Science, and Life Sciences. Members gain experience in a wide variety of synthetic, analytical, and characterisation techniques. If you are interested in joining the group, please send Nicolas (N.Barry@bradford.ac.uk) a 2-page CV.
