Harry undertook his undergraduate degree under the supervision of Prof. Ross W. Boyle (University of Hull, UK), and after this undertook a Ph.D. funded by Horizon2020 through the MSCA-ITN POLYTHEA, under the supervision of Prof. Mathias O. Senge (Trinity College Dublin, IE), and Dr. LÃgia C. Gomes-da-Silva (Universidade de Coimbra, PT), with his thesis focussing on the generation of oxidation resistant hydroporphyrins for photodynamic therapy of cancer. After this, Harry undertook a Post-Doctoral position under the supervision of Prof. Carl Redshaw (University of Hull, UK) utilizing water-soluble calixarenes as scaffolds for multimodal theragnostic treatments for cancer, along with generation novel functionalziation methodology for application to heteroatomic analogues of calixarenes.
Harry is now a Research Fellow in the group of Prof. Richard J. Whitby (¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ, UK) where he collaborates extensively with the group Prof. Malcolm H. Levitt on the generation and analysis of a wide variety of endohedral fullerenes and fullerides.
