Professor Jeremy G Frey is Professor of Physical Chemistry within Chemistry at the University of Southampton.
An integrated and multi-disciplinary approach to research
Jeremy Frey obtained his DPhil on experimental and theoretical aspects of van der Waals complexes in the Physical Chemistry Labs, Oxford University under the supervision of Professor Brian Howard, followed by a NATO/EPSRC fellowship at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and University of California, with Professor Y. T. Lee. In 1984 he took up a lectureship at the University of Southampton, where he is now Professor of Physical Chemistry. His experimental research probes molecular organization in environments from single molecules in molecular beams to liquid interfaces using laser spectroscopy from the IR to soft X-rays. He investigates how e-Science infrastructure supports scientific research with an emphasis on the way digital infrastructure can enhance the intelligent creation, dissemination and analysis of scientific data. This work blends with his computational and theoretical interests focussing on chemcial informatics for the prediction of chemcial properties making use of AI and Machine Learning as well as developments in modern mathematical ideas (e.g. Topological Data Analysis).
