Watson, David - University of Surrey - Department of Chemistry

个人简介

Dr David Watson received a BSc (Hons) in Industrial Chemistry in 1999 from Cardiff University. He received his PhD in Electrochemical Surface Science in 2003 from the same University. David conducted his postdoctoral research at the University of Cambridge working with Professor Richard Lambert in the areas of Chemoselective and Enantioselective Heterogeneous Catalysis. Between August 2008 and March 2011 David was a Lecturer in Physical and Inorganic Chemistry on a Fixed-Term contract at the University of Reading. In 2011, David joined the University of Surrey as a Lecturer in Physical and Materials Chemistry.

研究领域

Dr Watson’s current research interests focus primarily on surface and interface processes at the molecular level – specifically those involving Chemoselective and Enantioselective Heterogeneous reactions. These reactions are of the upmost importance in the production of chirally pure pharmaceuticals – a market currently worth in excess of $200 billion per annum, and increasing year on year. Dr Watson’s research is carried out in collaboration with colleagues from both within the Division of Chemistry and those from other departments and other national and international universities.
