George graduated from the University of Bath with an MChem in 2018. During his final year, his project focused on the design and implementation of fluorescent polymers to investigate the behaviour of lipid nanodiscs. George wants to continue this research at the CSCT, as well as improve his appreciation of sustainability issues and their solutions. In his spare time, George enjoys exploring new places, reading and eating.
