Adrian holds a BSc majoring in Chemistry from Melbourne University and Australian National University and a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Bath. Research interests are focussed on time-resolved and high-throughput experiments that are well suited to synchrotron study. Current areas of study include surfactant and drug systems that undergo rapid phase changes and nanostructured systems for which robotic sample preparation allows a wide range of samples to be studied. This work has enabled new studies into phase changes in pharmceuticals and added greater capability for the SAXS/WAXS beamline to handle high-throughput experiments.
