Andrew Glidle studied Maths and Chemistry at Exeter University, graduating in 1988. He earned a PhD in Electrochemistry in Dr. David Rosseinsky’s group. He then moved to Bristol University to work with Professor Rob Hillman, developing the Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance technique to study transport and viscoelastic processes in polymer films undergoing redox transformations. After several years at Bristol, he transitioned to Glasgow to collaborate with Dr. Bob Peacock in the Inorganic Chemistry department, focusing on electrochemical sensors for chiral molecule detection. At this time, he began working with Jon Cooper in the Bioelectronics group in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, seizing opportunities in the emerging field of Molecular Electronics. His career combines interests in spectroscopy and electron transfer, alongside developing new measurement methods that integrate synthetic and biological chemistry. His research now involves innovations in surface analysis techniques and fabrication controls for integrated microfluidic devices. Current projects involve characterizing sensor materials and developing functional surface architectures for (bio)chemical sensors and separation systems.
