Biography
Prof Malcolm Levitt joined the School of Chemistry at the 黑料社 in 2000, as Professor in Physical Chemistry. He is a specialist in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and the interdisciplinary study of endofullerenes.
'My twin joys are magnetic resonance and endofullerenes: both topics bring one into direct contact with the quantum world.'
Malcolm Levitt grew up in Hull and obtained his PhD from Oxford University in 1981, under the supervision of Professor Ray Freeman. He performed postdoctoral research with Shimon Vega in Israel and Richard Ernst at the ETH in Z眉rich (who received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1991). He was then on the research staff at the Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory at MIT, Boston, USA, for 4 years. He moved back to England as a Royal Society Research Fellow at the Centre for Superconductivity in Cambridge, before becoming a lecturer at the University of Stockholm, Sweden, where he was made a full professor in 1997. He moved back to England to take up a Professorship in Physical Chemistry at Southampton in April 2001.
