Dr Laura Paterson
Research Manager
Pure and Applied Chemistry
Personal statement
I am the Strathclyde Manager of the Collaborative GlaxoSmithKline MPhil and PhD Programmes, and Doctoral Training Centres. The programmes were initiated in 2009 and span the Department of Pure & Applied Chemistry and the Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences, supporting both GSK employees and new graduates towards higher research degrees. I collaborate extensively with colleagues across the institution and with our external partners, with whom we have had over 190 registered postgraduate students. I also support Professor William J. Kerr in his roles as Professor of Organic Chemistry and Deputy Associate Principal Research & Knowledge Exchange, with an associated remit aligning with the University's Postgraduate Research portfolio and Researcher Development. I joined the University following postdoctoral research in Chemistry at the University of Glasgow and PhD studies at Strathclyde.
