Organic Chemistry

I am Director of the Mass Spectrometry Research Facility in the Department of Chemistry, one of the UK’s leading mass spectrometry research facilities. I manage dedicated expertise and support staff who contribute to world class research across the department and the wider university. I am also a University Research Lecturer in Chemistry and Visiting Scholar at the Research Laboratory for Scientific Archaeology. My research group focuses on the development and application of novel analytical methods using chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. We have a number of specific areas of interest centered around applications in chemical biology and metabolism. Projects currently include studies in cancer metabolism, animal and plant physiology, natural product analysis and isotopic applications in molecular and forensic archaeology. We collaborate with a wide range of researchers across Oxford, nationally and internationally. Internships, Part II and D.Phil. projects are also available. If you are interested in finding out more about the Mass Spectrometry Research Facility or research in the McCullagh group please contact James McCullagh.
