Research team members

The Habershon research group is based in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Warwick.

Our team comprises PDRAs, PhD students, graduate researchers and undergraduate project students from a range of backgrounds, including chemistry, physics, biochemistry and maths.

If you are interested in joining our group as a MRes student, PhD student, or PDRA - please get in touch!

Current Habershon group members

Prof. Scott Habershon (PI)

Scott's research interest is in developing and applying novel chemical dynamics simulations methods which can be used to study complex systems containing many particles. Particular focus is on photochemistry, automated reaction-mechanism generation, nuclear quantum effects and wavefunction dynamics.

A brief CV can be found here.
