Nicky Farrer
PhD student

Nicky graduated with a BA and a MSci from the University of Cambridge in the summer of 2003, working under the supervision of Scott McIndoe for her Masters (Part III) project. Nicky began her PhD in October 2003, working under the supervision of Professor Brian Johnson in Cambridge and Dr Scott McIndoe in Victoria; she successfully defended her thesis in August 2007. She investigated strategies for enabling high-throughput analysis of organometallic catalysts and was funded by the EPSRC. In her spare time she likes catching up on the "cuwchur, init" she missed out on in school due to studying sciences, rocking out to good tunes, oil painting and sampling fine wines.

Nicky is now working as a postdoctoral research fellow in the group of Professor Peter Sadler, University of Warwick, UK.
