My research is on synthesis and catalytic activity of carbene complexes of late transition metals. I have discovered numerous new compounds using this methodology with potential applications in the pharmaceautical industry.I have a song called 'Nobody Move' in the Tom Cruise film War of the Worlds as well as a song in the DVD trailers for the Sentinel and Better Luck Tomorrow.
