I’m moving to theSchool of Chemistry at the University of Melbourne late next month, starting there on about the 21st of April. If you’re at Monash and interested in working on one of the projects described on these pages, please do send me an email. It may be possible for you to move to Melbourne Uni. Read More...
ARC funding for work on the hydrophobic effect
26/10/10 20:52
The ARC has just announced funding for Discovery Projects commencing in 2011. We’ve received $420,000 over three years for a proposal entitled A new explanation for the hydrophobic effect. The work is a collaboration with James Beattie from the University of Sydney.
A new type of dendrimer
13/08/10 22:07 Filed in: Polymers | Synthetic polymers
A new type of dendrimer is reported in a Chem. Comm. article just out. This is the first paper out of my collaboration with David Lupton, and Judith Hierold, who made the new dendrimers. We can control the structures and interactions of the dendrimers, and are studying the molecules with the Australian synchrotron. Their aggregation behaviour in different solvents allows the systematic study of hydrophobic forces.
The article will be available online soon:
