Chris Amodio

Dr. Chris Amodio is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at the University of Surrey. He holds key administrative roles as Quality Manager and Chairman of the Staff-Student Liaison Committee. His research focuses on transition metal and lanthanide complex reactions, metal uptake in plants, photochromic compounds, oscillating reactions, and quality assurance in education. Teaching expertise spans inorganic chemistry (transition metals, lanthanides, bioinorganic systems) and physical chemistry (kinetics, fast reactions).

• Research Interests: Reaction mechanisms of transition metal/lanthanide complexes, metal phytotoxicity, photochromism, oscillating chemical systems.
• Administrative Roles: Quality management, student-staff communication leadership.

His work bridges chemical research and educational governance, emphasizing practical applications of inorganic and physical chemistry principles.
