The Forgan Group is based in the School of Chemistry at the University of Glasgow. Our research focusses on the development and application of metal-organic frameworks, MOFs, which are porous inorganic-organic hybrid constructs. For more information on our projects involving new self-assembly protocols, biomimetic catalysis and drug delivery, click the Research tab.

We are currently recruiting for one fully funded PhD student for an October 2023 start - see our advert for details. If you are interested in carrying out PhD research with us, please do send an email to discuss potential opportunities. Self-funded students are encouraged to apply all year round in any area of materials or supramolecular chemistry; interested potential students should contact Prof Forgan directly by email, enclosing a cover letter, copy of your CV and details of the scheme you wish to apply for. Summer placements for 2023 are also being considered - email for more details.
We currently have no postdoctoral positions available. We are always keen to hear from prospective PDRAs intending to apply for their own funding. If you have or wish to apply for external funding to work with Prof Forgan, please email him directly.
