About this position

Background Normally, emulsions are designed to last as long as possible. This is vital for everyday emulsions such as paints, pharmaceutical formulations and ice cream. However, here in the Fielden group, we think this is boring, so instead we make emulsions that destroy themselves. We use organic supramolecular chemistry to create a molecular tug-of-war, controlling how molecules move into and out of tiny oil droplets within emulsions. By understanding how and why emulsions break down, we aim to turn their instability into a powerful tool for controlling chemistry. Our goal is to transform si
