Biography

 

Susan gained her BPharm from the University of Nottingham in 1991, qualified as a Pharmacist (RPSGB) in 1992 before receiving her PhD in Medicinal Chemistry, from the University of Bath in 1995 for a thesis entitled "Synthesis of Biodegradable Polymers for Delivery of Diagnostic Agents". She gained Post-Doctoral experience at the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry, Prague (Royal Society European Fellowship), Johannes Gutenberg Universität, Mainz and the Inorganic Chemistry Laboratory, Oxford before taking up the Kinerton Lectureship of Organic Chemistry at Trinity College, Dublin.  She joined the School in April 2003 as Lecturer of Medicinal Chemistry and was promoted to Senior lecturer in 2008.

She is currently the Chair of the University South East Asia Dialogue Group and was the Associate Dean for Admissions for the Faculty of Science from 2011 till 2016
