Digitally directed optimisation of mixed metal oxide catalysts for hydrogenations of heteroaromatics and downstream functionalisation

This project builds on the strong relationship between the Universities of Leeds and Liverpool, harnessing the complementary expertise of both institutes, and is supported by AstraZeneca. The student working on this project will be based primarily at Leeds with a series of periodic, short and sustained, visits to Liverpool during the project, and a 3 month industrial placement in AstraZeneca. The ideal candidate has a strong interest in automation, catalysis and organic synthesis. Effective written and verbal communication skills, good time-management and the ability to work in a collaborative environment are essential.
