The principal driver for my research is electrochemical methodology. I have several areas of interest with a central connecting theme being electrochemistry. Examples of areas that I work in are:
(a) Gas phase electrochemistry: The central hypothesis is based on considering a gaseous plasma as either an electrolyte in much the same way as a liquid or solid electrolyte, or an electrode due to the availability of free electrons.
(b) Analytical: A major research initiative from my group, with a strongly enterprise direction, is to develop a new sensing approach to detect and identify airborne biological materials or bioaerosols. This is a relatively new area of research for my group, which is focused on developing a surveillance system for the clinical environment.
(c) Astroelectrochemistry: An example of applying my application of expertise to different disciplines is captured in a perspectives paper published in Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (2010, 12, 3072).
(d) Surfactant films: Another example of my distinctive pioneering research is demonstrated by the paper describing electrochemical measurements in a free-standing surfactant film (Electrochem. Commun., 2009, 11, 1226).
