Prof Vasilios Stavros

Professor of Chemistry (visiting until January 2026) 



I received my BSc. and Ph.D. (with Helen Fielding) from King's College London (KCL). Following my Ph.D., I was a PDRA at the University of Oxford (with John Simons FRS and Mark Brouard), returning to KCL as a PDRA. I then moved to the University of California Berkeley on a Lawrence Berkeley Postdoctoral Fellowship (with Steve Leone). I returned to the UK in 2005 as a Royal Society University Research Fellow to begin my independent research at Warwick.

In January 2023, I joined the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham as Professor of Physical Chemistry. I am currently a visiting academic at Warwick.
