Professor Paul J Stevenson

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering

The main focus of the Stevenson research groups is to develop new synthetic methods to expedite the synthesis of architecturally complex bioactive organic compounds. Biocatalysis has recently been employed to effect chemical transformations that would be impossible by traditional methods. This research gives efficient access to novel new materials that would not be available from any other means.
