Catherine O'Leary-Steele
Catherine Rourke graduated with a first class MChem degree from the University of Oxford in 2005, completing her part II project under the supervision of Prof. Steve Davies, studying stereoselective enamide functionalisation.
Catherine's PhD was supported by a University Scholarship and a CASE award from GSK, which involved an industrial placement at GSK's Tonbridge site with Dr Jerome Hayes. Her project was concerned with the synthesis of libraries of skeletally diverse, natural product-like compounds to be used for screening in chemical genetics assays. Catherine moved onto a postdoctoral position with Dr Stuart Warriner.
