Jenny completed her PhD in bioinorganic chemistry at the University of Sydney, Australia, with a brief stint at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. As a Marie Curie Incoming International Fellow at the University of Cambridge she explored how biocatalysts can be exploited to generate solar fuels, in an emerging field known as semi-artificial photosynthesis. Here in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry, Jenny has continued and expanded this research, and in November 2023 was awarded a prestigious European Research Council Consolidator Grant to develop an exciting new approach for accelerating synergistic interactions between biological and non-biological materials. She has recently been appointed Assistant Professor in Materials Chemistry in a post jointly funded by Newnham College.
