Matthew graduated from the University of East Anglia in 2012 with an MSc in Advanced Organic Chemistry. His research interests are mainly organic and inorganic Chemistry, with his project focusing on the dimerisation of calix-[6]-arenes. He then took a gap year back in Malta, teaching Chemistry at GCSE level. Outside the labs Matthew enjoys the occasional drink at the pub, watching movies and hiking.
