Sharon Ashbrook

Sharon Ashbrook is a Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of St Andrews.[1] Her research is focused on the application of multinuclear solid-state NMR spectroscopy[2] techniques as well as the combination of these techniques with first-principles calculations to investigate structure, order and dynamics of solid state materials.

Other areas of interest include microporous framework materials, high pressure minerals and the encapsulation of nuclear waste with ceramics.[1]

Her work has garnered awards and prizes, including a Royal Society of Chemistry's Corday-Morgan Prize in 2015 for her contribution to the structure of materials by using a combination of solid-state NMR spectroscopy and first-principles calculations.[1]
