The Webb group is part of the Department of Chemistry and is based in the Chemistry Building at the University of Manchester.

The Department of Chemistry is one of the largest research schools in the UK and the premier institution for chemistry in the North-West; with ~650 students it has one of the largest undergraduate populations in the UK. The 60 academic staff and ~200 postgraduates of the School enjoy one of the UK's largest research grant portfolios, in addition to world-class facilities, including a full range of analytical instrumentation.

Our laboratories contain optical/epi-fluorescence microscopy with hot stage, fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-visible spectrophotometry, induction heating, and a fully-equipped synthesis lab. Other shared facilities available include NMR spectrometry, the latest mass spectrometers, DLS, DSC, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
