Summer
2004: 'Itchy Cornwall'
As section editor for the restaurant sections in ‘Itchy Cornwall’
– a guide to Cornwall aimed at 18-35 year olds (see www.itchycornwall.co.uk)
– I was involved with commissioning and editing content relating
to restaurants. I also wrote a number of reviews myself, some of
which are featured here (and a few of these – such as the
last review here – were written for other sections too).

Spring
2000: 'Lay report' – The ozone layer
Written as an exercise in communicating sometimes rather difficult
scientific issues to a general – or 'lay' – audience
this report was researched and written up as part of a final year
project whilst studying Chemistry at Imperial College, London. It
presents an overview of the threats posed to the ozone layer and
at what the likely consequences for earth may be as a result.

June
2000: Research paper– Molecular Modelling of Pd(0) Insertion
into Carbon- Halogen Bonds
This is a scientific paper very different in nature from anything
displayed above (I've included it the better to provide some insight
into the breadth of my writing background). Researched and written
up in order to fulfil an important research element of the final
year syllabus for my B.Sc. in Chemistry at Imperial College, the
report outlines research carried out in the field of theoretical
computer-aided molecular modelling and eventual conclusions drawn.
In this instance the oxidative addition of a C-X bond (X = F, Cl,
Br, I) to a palladium intermediate is looked at and the effect of
the presence of variously substituted alkyne halide metal complexes
investigated. This paper formed part of an overall – rather
much bigger – research project that eventually resulted in
a published
paper in the Journal of the Chemical Society (Perkin
Transactions 2).
