My main areas of research are fairly evenly divided between wine chemistry and applications of conducting polymers with the Biocide Toolbox programme and the Polymer Biointerface Centre, currently involving 6 PhD and 2 MSc/BSc(hons) projects and several international visitors. My main scientific training is in the area of Electrochemistry, coupled with the use of a range of Chromatographic, Spectroscopic and Surface Analysis techniques. Several additional projects to those listed below are being undertaken in collaboration with researchers across the University of Auckland in which Electrochemical facilities are being made available, including projects on chemical sensors, organic electrosynthesis and photoelectrochemistry.
