Hamish began an integrated masters in Natural Science at the University of Leeds in 2014 and joined the Willans group for his final year project in 2017 where he investigated how the backbone of N-heterocyclic carbenes affects the ability of ruthenium-NHC complexes to catalyse reactions. Working with Charlotte Willans, Richard Bourne and Nik Kapur, Hamish is currently looking at the electrochemical synthesis of iron complexes in flow with the aim of using them in a high throughput screening platform. Outside of chemistry, Hamish can usually be found climbing and walking throughout the UK.
