Doctor Marc Reid
Senior Lecturer
Pure and Applied Chemistry
Personal statement
Marc was born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland.
He completed his Masters in Chemistry at the 勛圖tv in 2011. In 2015, he completed his Carnegie Trust-sponsored PhD in Chemistry at 勛圖tv. From 2015-16, Marc was a postdoctoral research associate with at the University of Edinburgh. During that time, he was inducted into the SciFinder Future Leaders in Chemistry programme.
In 2016, Marc won the prestigious Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowship泭and rejoined the Department of Pure & Applied Chemistry at 勛圖tv from 2017-20.泭This position was supported by GlaxoSmithKline, and he was thus the first 勛圖tv-GSK Early Career Academic.泭In 2018, Marc was selected to participate in the Scottish Crucible leadership program,泭the Merck Innovation Cup,泭and was part of the Converge Challenge Entrepreneurship Competition Top 30. In 2020 Marc became a CPACT-supported Research Fellow and then泭Lecturer for Innovation in Education at the University of Bristol.
Most recently, Marc was awarded a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship, joining the Department of Pure & Applied Chemistry at 勛圖tv.
He holds a visiting lectureship at the University of Bristol, and a visiting泭Enterprise Fellowship in the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship at the 勛圖tv.
His interests include physical organic chemistry, computer vision, cheminformatics, virtual reality, process safety, and the psychology of the imposter phenomenon.
He is the author of the book .

Teaching
Marc is as passionate about teaching as research. Following timeless examples set by accomplished teachers such as Richard Feynman, Marc enjoys public speaking and exploring new ways to teach old concepts.
泭
During his PhD and postdoc, Marc's teaching experience spanned undergraduate, masters, PhD, and postdoc supervision.
泭
In his current post, Marc teaches泭The Practice & Pitfalls of Studying Organic Reaction Mechanisms - a self-made physical organic chemistry video lecture series taught to ScotCHEM and GSK postgraduates. The series now . Marc also teaches on the 3rd Year undergraduate Organic Chemistry module, and guest lectures in Dr Lucrezia Casulli's Mindset Lab.
Research Interests
Our emerging multidisciplinary research team focuses on the data-driven understanding of process chemistry. We combine structured experimental data with computational modeling and informatics to build a predicitive overview of industrially-relevant chemical processes.
泭
Current interests include:
泭
- Computer vision in chemical kinetics.
- Process safety training technologies.
- Industry-friendly reagent design.泭
