Control and Prediction of the Organic Solid State
Published crystal structure prediction studies
Personnel
Principal Investigator
Professor Sarah (Sally) L. Price, Professor of Physical Chemistry at UCL. She applies her expertise in modelling intermolecular forces to develop the computational prediction of organic crystal structures and their properties.
Co-Investigators
Prof Alastair J. Florence, Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences at the University of Strathclyde. Specialises in crystallographic investigations of solid-state polymorphism in pharmaceuticals, including crystallisation and purification.
Prof Derek A. Tocher, Professor of Chemistry at UCL. Special interests in applying laboratory X-ray diffraction techniques to characterising organic, inorganic and organometallic compounds.
Postdoctoral Research Workers
1 experimental and 1 computational to be announced
Research Administrator
The following people were employed on the original 4 year CPOSS project, and will continue to contribute to the overall success of the project.
Co-investigators
