On the 16th February 2015 Manuel Abelairas-Edesa became Dr Manuel when he successfully defended his thesis under the examination of Professor Paul Kamer from St. Andrews and Dr Andrew Pike (NU). His research was focused on the synthesis, air-stability and reactivity of bidentate primary phosphines.
Manuel first joined the group as an Erasmus student from the University of Santiago de Compostela, before returning to Newcastle to commence his PhD the following year.
Many congratulations/felicitaciones!
