- Provided interactive one-on-one and group tutoring sessions to assist in the development of studyingtechniques leading to GCSE students passing their exams with Grade 6’s and above- Assisted in assembling lesson plans to enrich and further support students learning- Compiled academic performance through Microsoft Excel to address areas of strengths and weaknesses for students- Delivered tailored lessons and effectively communicated information to students of differentbackgrounds- Encouraged students who had a lack of confidence in their studies

- Designed and developed a novel trimodal theranostic agent for use in image-guided surgery for prostate cancer by combining PET and PDT- Successfully synthesised PSMA targeting motif, thiophene-fused BODIPY photosensitiser, and bifunctional chelator DOTA- Purified compounds using normal and reverse-phase chromatography and HPLC- Analysed compound structure and confirmed successful synthesis using H, C NMR and LC-MS

Organophosphorus Project with Dr Helen Coulshed- Designed and developed a range of bis(diphenylphosphino)amine ligands as a team to investigate how changing the R group on the backbone can affect coordination behaviour- Analysed ligand structure by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 31P NMR- Appointed team leader and ensured group members attended weekly meetings to discuss data collected from the projectBis(thiosemicarbazone) Ligand Synthesis with Dr James Harvey- Designed and synthesised a range bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligands by changing the alkylation of the terminal amino groups and backbone to produce symmetrical and asymmetrical ligands- Investigated the effect on the lipophilicity of the compounds by HPLC to elucidate biological distribution - Complexed ligand to zinc then functionalised the compound with glucose to explore imaging agents targeting cancerous cellsSynthesis and Toxicity Assay of Benzodiazepine Derivative with Dr Alice Collier- Synthesised benzodiazepine derivative via the condensation of o-phenylenediamines with ⍺,β-unsaturated ketones- Observed motility of shrimp to investigate the toxicity of the derivative- Used UV spectroscopy to demonstrate the adsorption ability of charcoal as an effective treatment in treating overdoses of drugs
