Andy Cooper is a Nottingham
graduate (1991), obtaining his Ph.D there in 1994
for the study of organometallic reaction mechanisms at low temperatures and
high pressures with Prof. Martyn Poliakoff. After his Ph.D, he held
a 1851 Fellowship and a Royal Society NATO Fellowship at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA, working with Prof. Joseph M. DeSimone on polymerisation
reactions and phase transfer processes in supercritical CO2
(1995–1997). He then held a Ramsay Memorial Research
Fellowship at the Melville Laboratory for Polymer Synthesis in
Cambridge, working with Prof. Andrew B. Holmes on polymerisation in supercritical CO2
(1997–1999). During this period, he was also a Research Fellow at Darwin College. In 1998, he was awarded
a Royal Society University Research Fellowship and joined Liverpool
in January 1999, where he now holds a Personal Chair. His research interests are polymeric
materials, supercritical fluids, organometallics,
templated materials, and high-throughput materials methodology.
