Chemistry PhD in Edinburgh 🏴, developing methods to monitor organic reactions by NMR 🧲. Happiest when bouldering, and definitely designed to hang upside down 🦇

Yesterday Dr Andres Garcia-Dominguez delivered a standout talk at the St Andrews Centre of Magnetic Resonance.
Combining clever pulse sequences with sharp mechanistic thinking, he showed how NMR can support and challenge computation!

Looking forward to it!
Both Pedrou Helou de Oliveira and Annabel Flook (PhD students) will be presenting their work at the RSC Physical Organic Chemistry Postgraduate Meeting!
Plus, posters from other group members will showcase even more of our molecular investigations!

In March, PhD students Callum Cushnie and Roisin O'Dea proved it's not just about fast chemical reactions - they're fast on their feet too! They both successfully completed the Inverness Half Marathon with speed and precision worthy of any lab experiment. #InvernessHalfMarathon

Massive congratulations to PhD student Callum Cushnie for absolutely smashing the activation barrier at the Edinburgh Marathon yesterday - flying across the finish line at 2:59:56! Now that's what we call a fast reaction rate! #EdinburghMarathon #FirstMarathon

Security at Bristol airport asked me if i had a body in my backpack bc it was so heavy. I said 'I'm not supposed to say yes to that, right?'.
Apparently security did not like that...

I had a great time in London at the joint NMRDG and BRSG winter meeting over the last couple of days. It was also fantastic to present one of my current projects there and a huge thanks for all of the interesting questions and comments that followed!

It's a little bit late, but I'm really excited for my first paper! For reaction monitoring by NMR, signal-averaging can be applied *after acquisition*, and results in better S/N *and* data density without the typical trade-off. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... #NMRchat #NMR @lloydjonesgroup.bsky.social
Simple Parameters and Data Processing for Better Signal-to-Noise and Temporal Resolution in In Situ 1D NMR Reaction Monitoring
In situ 1D NMR spectroscopic reaction monitoring allows detailed investigation of chemical kinetics and mechanism. Concentration versus time data are derived from a time series of NMR spectra. Each sp...

This was incredible to see (especially after I missed seeing them already that month...)
What better way to say hi here than with a picture from our most recent group trip, complete with an incredible light show!
