معرفی
Gregory Smith is a SANS instrument scientist at the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source in the UK. He earned his degrees in Chemistry from the University of Bristol and has held positions at the University of Sheffield (UK) and the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen. His research focuses on the interactions and self-assembly of soft matter and colloids, such as surfactants, polymers, and nanoparticles, using neutron-based techniques to study structures spanning length scales from ångströms to micrometres.
Education:
- Chemistry, University of Bristol
Research & Responsibilities: Gregory specializes in neutron scattering methods, including SANS, SESANS, and MISANS, which are applied to food science and soft matter systems. He is responsible for the Larmor instrument at ISIS, a flexible facility optimized for Larmor precession techniques and capable of polarized SANS, SESANS, and dynamic studies. His work bridges fundamental physical chemistry with practical food science challenges.
Leadership & Recognition: Gregory leads Working Group 5 (Food Structure and Health) under the Northern Lights on Food initiative and is a LINXS Fellow, highlighting his interdisciplinary contributions to food science and neutron-based research.
