Maria Kolyagina
iCAT Rotation Student - Since September 2024
Previous: MChem - The University of Manchester
Current: iCAT Rotation Student
Funding: EPSRC
Biography: Originally from Woking, Surrey, I obtained my undergraduate degree at the University of Manchester, undertaking an industrial placement in medicinal chemistry at Roche in Basel, Switzerland. My final year project, conducted in the Trowbridge group, was on the development of synthetic methodologies using photoredox catalysis. I joined the iCAT CDT in September 2023 and I am presently on a three-month rotation in the Procter group, during which I will be investigating radical cross-coupling reactions using samarium diiodide. Outside the lab I enjoy dancing, baking, and travelling.
