Current Research:

Dr Jingping Hu is starting the first year of his Ramsay Fellowship based in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oxford in 2011 and is co-sponsored by UCL and the University of Oxford.
Dr Hu will be undertaking research to study protein transitions by developing new experimental designs to integrate spectroscopic structural and electrochemical studies of these systems.
