Summary

 

Summary

Becky is a Royal Society University Research Fellow in the Department of Chemistry.

After graduating with an MChem in Chemistry with Study in Industry from the University of Sheffield, Becky carried out her DPhil on palladium-catalysed cascade cyclisations under the supervision of Prof. Ed Anderson at the University of Oxford. She then worked with Prof. Andy Cooper FRS as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Liverpool, where her research interests expanded to include the synthesis of porous organic cages leading to the realisation of the first molecular porous liquids in 2015. Her interests also include the use of high-throughput automation in the synthesis of molecular organic materials and supramolecular assemblies. 

Becky was awarded a Royal Society University Research Fellowship in 2019 on “Molecular Assembly in Porous Liquids”, allowing her to establish an independent research career in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Liverpool, before moving to Imperial in May 2020.
