Professor of Physical Chemistry at UCL

Graham Worth is Professor of Physical Chemistry. His group currently consists of 4 postdocs, 4 PhD students and 2 Masters students. Research in theoretical chemistry within his group focuses on the development of a quantum dynamics computer program to simulate fundamental molecular reactivity, with a particular interest in photo-excited reactions and non-adiabatic effects. He moved to UCL in 2016. Before this, he worked at the University of Birmingham from 2005 -2016 (research fellow, senior lecturer, professor) and at King's College London 2000 – 2005 (research fellow, lecturer). Prior to that he was a Marie-Curie Fellow then a Research Assistant at the University of Heidelberg in the group of Prof. Lenz Cederbaum (1992 – 2000), and a Research Fellow at the EMBL, Heidelberg in the group of Prof. Rebecca Wade (1992).
