Biography

David was raised in the U.S. state of Ohio, and received his undergraduate degree in 2002 from The Ohio State University. While at Ohio State, David developed an interest in organic chemistry (mainly because it seemed to involve less maths than other fields) and conducted undergraduate research under the guidance of Prof. Leo Paquette. Upon graduation, David decided to check out Southern California, where he carried out his graduate research with Prof. Larry Overman at the University of California, Irvine. After completing his PhD in 2008, David moved to a rather older institution, the University of Cambridge, where he undertook a post-doctoral stay with Prof. Steve Ley. In 2010, David began his independent academic career at the University of Glasgow, where he is currently a Senior Lecturer.

 

    

Research interests

We’re interested in all the ways that carbon-based molecules can be useful to people. Often this leads us to interdisciplinary collaboration, for example with biologists to think about new ways to treat a disease. Specific active collaborations we have include:

Thinking about new ways to treat viral infections (like Covid-19) with Dr. Leo James at the Laboratory of Molecular Biology (Cambridge) and Prof. Sam Wilson at the University of Cambridge.

Developing new ways to influence stem cell differentiation with Prof. Matt Dalby.
 
Addressing the challenge of anti-microbial resistance with Prof. Andrew Roe, and Prof. Jesko Köhnke.  

Testing a new strategy that could be used to treat heart failure with Prof. Will Fuller.

Studying historical textile dyes for identification and preservation with Prof. Anita Quye.

Investigating ways to overcome drug resistance in parasitic nematodes with Prof. Tony Page.
