Alex successfully defended his thesis on a cold Glasgow day in January. His thesis titled: “Extending Peptide Search Space and Self-Assembly Methods” was examined by Dr Antonia Mey, University of Edinburgh, and Dr David Palmer, University of Strathclyde. Alex used a mixture of molecular dynamics simulations and latterly, machine learning methods to explore the peptide […]
Congratulations to krystian who successfully defended his thesis, titled “Elucidation of complex reaction mechanisms through the application of Density Functional Theory”. Krystian was examined by Dr. David Nelson (Strathclyde) and Prof. John Walton (St. Andrews). Krystian’s PhD defence follows a successful collaboration with the Murphy group in which Krystian was a valuable asset in ascertaining […]
Congratulations to Allan who successfully defended his PhD work and passed his viva with flying colours. His external examiner (Stuart Macgregor) and internal examiner (Marc Reid) both commented on the excellent contribution that Allan had made to the literature in understanding reaction mechanisms and applying density functional theory to challenging organic reactions. Allan’s thesis “Searching […]
Congratulations to Daniela who successfully defended her PhD thesis on 17th July at the ASRC in New York. Daniela is the first student on the joint CUNY/Strathclyde graduate program to complete her PhD. Daniela’s thesis “Minimalistic peptide-based supramolecular systems relevant to the chemical origins of life” was well-received by the examining committee who complimented her […]
