Computational Systems Chemistry
We have a world class reputation in developing and applying computational methods to chemical, biological and materials problems. Our existing research activities are broadly based, covering multiple length, timescales, and methods, but are founded on strong activity in the development of new theories and computational techniques.
Electrochemistry
Electrochemistry is a broad subject covering all areas of charge transfer reactions at interfaces and impacts on daily life in many immediate ways from corrosion and energy storage, through water treatment and purification, clean energy generation and environmental monitoring to medical diagnostics and electrodeposition.
Molecular Diagnostics and Therapeutics
Chemistry has an international reputation in molecular diagnostics and therapeutics and collaborates with teams in the Faculty of Medicine, Human Genetics, Optical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Physics and Life Sciences to develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
Magnetic Resonance
Chemistry has a specialised section in magnetic resonance research, a phenomenon that occurs when materials are placed in a strong magnetic field and exposed to radiowaves. This very important method in chemistry and biochemistry, may be used to investigate the structure and motion of materials, and the molecules of which they are composed.
Molecular Assembly, Function & Structure
The Molecular Assembly Function & Structure group is involved with all aspects of the synthesis, characterisation, properties and applications of new molecular and supramolecular compounds and framework materials. We apply our skills to assemble and study new compounds for many different applications, including healthcare, fine chemicals, green chemistry, functional materials, electronic materials and devices.
