Dr Luke A. Wilkinson
Leverhulme Trust Early Career Research Fellow

Career

Luke obtained his undergraduate MChem degree from the University of East Anglia, Norwich in 2011. He then moved to the University of Sheffield and the University of Huddersfield to complete a PhD with Dr Nathan Patmore on charge transfer mechanisms in dimers of quadruply bonded dimolybdenum paddlewheel complexes.

In 2016, Luke took up a one-year postdoctoral position in the group of Dr James Walton at Durham University working on C-H functionalisation of eta-6 bound arenes, before moving to Imperial College London to undertake a two and a half year postdoctoral position with Professor Nicholas Long, where he worked on developing ferrocene-phthalocyanine assemblies for thermoelectric applications.

In September 2019, Luke moved to York as a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Research Fellow to work on paddlewheel-porphyrin conjugates for solar harvesting applications.
