I work about half of my day in our research labs, mostly working at a fume cupboard. I spend the rest of my time in our teaching lab (a massive lab with over 40 fume hoods in it!) and in various small rooms teaching groups of students.
My day varies a lot… Usually I start out in my office… then I might be teaching in a lecture theatre or delivering a workshop in a small seminar room or running a teaching laboratory. In terms of my research I have two large spaces where the kit that my students and I do our experiments on operates. I usually end up in my office at the end of the day.
I spend most of my working time in research labs to conduct experiments. Office is normally for data analysis, chating and relaxing. Everyday I go beween office and lab back and forth frequently.
I spend my time spilt between being the labs or in offices/lectures. A lot of my work is spilt between the two. As a trainer, I spend more time in the offices etc. I miss the lab!!!
I work at the University of Glasgow. I spend most of my time as a lecturer in organic and medicinal chemistry and a lot of my time in the lab making compounds!
