About Us

I’m a research fellow in the Chemistry department at the University of Warwick, and this is my fledgling research group consisting of myself, three research students and a large number of active collaborations.

Our focus is on understanding the link between microscopic structure of a material and its relationship to the observed macroscopic property. We are engaged in a broad range of research projects from the more fundamental science of understanding phase transitions which occur as a results of orbital, magnetic and molecular-like ordering, to understanding technologically interesting properties such as ferroeletricity and negative thermal expansion. Our work is underpinned by detailed crystallographic studies at central facilities and symmetry analysis of the probed microscopic structures. We also work closely with theorists to develop fundamental mechanistic insights.
