Mike Ashfold is Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Bristol.  He is a Fellow of the Royal Society.  His research interests include gas phase molecular photochemistry and reaction dynamics, and several areas of gas-surface science – including diamond growth by chemical vapour deposition methods, and the growth of nanostructures (e.g. of ZnO) by pulsed laser deposition.

Lucy Carpenter received her BSc (Hons) in Chemistry from the University of Bristol and studied for a PhD in the subject of peroxy radicals in the lower atmosphere at the University of East Anglia (awarded 1996). After postdoctoral research at UEA and the University of Leeds, she moved to the Department of Chemistry, University of York as a lecturer in 2000 and was awarded a personal chair in 2009.  Her research addresses the atmospheric impacts of marine-derived trace gases, particularly organohalogens.   In 2006 she was awarded a Philip Leverhulme prize in Earth Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences.

Jim Anderson holds a 6th century Chair in Materials at the University of Aberdeen and runs a surface chemistry and catalysis group based in the department of chemistry of which he is currently head. His main activities involve characterisation and testing of solid acid and supported metal catalysts with application in environmental catalysis, and fuel and chemical processing including fine chemicals. He is on the editorial boards of Catalysis Letters, Topics in Catalysis and Catalysis Today and Research Letters in Physical Chemistry.

Dr van Duijneveldt is a Reader in Physical Chemistry at the University of Bristol. His research focuses on soft condensed matter: colloidal suspensions, emulsions, liquid crystals, and polymers. Real systems such as inks, paints, shampoos, foodstuffs, and pharmaceuticals tend to be complex, consisting of many components that are often difficult to characterise in detail. Well-defined model systems are therefore studied instead. A central theme is the use of polymers to control particle interactions, structure and phase behaviour in colloidal suspensions. He is Treasurer of the RSC Colloid and Interface Science Group.

Stuart Mackenzie is a University Lecturer in Physical and Theoretical Chemistry at the University of Oxford and a Tutorial fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford. His research interests include the structure and reactivity of gas-phase transition metal clusters and the application of optical cavity-enhanced absorption techniques to the condense phase.

Dwayne is Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry in the School of Chemistry at the University of Leeds. His research interests are in atmospheric chemistry, in particular laboratory studies of reaction kinetics and photochemistry, and measurements in the field of the concentrations of free-radicals in the atmosphere using laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy.
