We’re onto the second day of our summer conference now where we’ll be hearing from the 2024 cohort who have just started their projects! We’re looking forward to hearing where they plan to take their research #TECS#CDT#EPSRC
Now, we have Prakriti from the Collins group explaining how she is aiming to achieve translational motion on a molecular level using sequential catalysis with metal migrations!

Olly Fifield intrigued us with his project exploring a novel method to generate fluorinated carbenes to explore complex fluorinated products. #TECS#CDT#EPSRC
The last speaker for our conference is Sam Jacobs who’s just joined the group of Prof. Craig Butts and will be looking at the role of automated NMR in natural product analysis #TECS#CDT#EPSRC
Following on, we have another member of the @TilbyLab Kate Davison, giving us an insight into her project exploring the chemical space of chiral nitrogen compounds!

Our final talk today is the plenary lecture from Professor Igor Larrosa, who gave a fascinating picture of the different methods to elucidate reaction mechanisms with C-H activation! Thankyou for joining us @LarrosaGroup#TECS#CDT#EPSRC
And for our final student talk of the day, Liam Smith presents his project titled “Probing Beta-Branching Mechanisms in Polyketide Biosynthesis”. Cool chemistry!
A whole host of chemistry highlighted in the 2023 cohort's flash presentations! Lots to look forward to in the afternoon poster session. #TECS#CDT#EPSRC
