Research activity per year
I have built a solid foundation in both traditional and specialised areas of science!
I have obtained my BSc in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics; this gives me a great multidisciplinary base. I then continued in my postgraduate studies and completed 2 MSc degrees: the first one in Organic Chemistry from St. John’s College Agra (Agra University, India) and the second one in Environmental Analytical Chemistry (University of Glasgow). I then obtained my PhD in Chemistry from the University of Sunderland (my research topic was on Radical Cyclisation). I then conducted research on Glycosylation as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Birmingham.
My academic career began as a Senior Research Fellow on Natural Dyes at G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology in India. Following my move to the UK, I have taught at various institutions, including as a Visiting Lecturer at the University of Sunderland. I then worked as a Lecturer in Chemistry at Wirral Metropolitan College where I taught on the BSc (Hons) Chemistry programme (accredited by the University of Manchester) and on the HNC and HND courses in Chemistry. I joined Edge Hill University (EHU) in February 2008 as a Senior Lecturer in Chemistry, and I have taught on various chemistry modules in Education and across all programmes in the Department of Biology.
My dedication to teaching has earned recognition at EHU, including being listed in the Directory for Good Practice for high-quality Tutor support, which positively impacted retention and progression of students. In addition, I was awarded 'The Chancellor’s Award' for Excellence in Teaching.
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. This person’s work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
