Chemistry and materials editor
Daniel Singleton is a chemistry and materials editor covering molecular reactions, catalysis, chemical synthesis and computational methods. He focuses on how experiments establish reaction pathways, how models support interpretation and where uncertainty limits claims about new molecules, processes and materials.
Daniel Singleton studied chemistry at the University of Manchester, developing a particular interest in molecular structure, reaction kinetics and the experimental tools used to investigate chemical change. He later worked with an industrial analytical laboratory, a university science-communication programme and a scientific publishing team covering chemistry and materials research. At Science Report, he writes and edits coverage of organic chemistry, catalysis, chemical biology, spectroscopy, computational chemistry and the development of new molecular and polymeric materials. His editorial approach examines how researchers identify reaction products, test proposed mechanisms and compare laboratory measurements with theoretical calculations. He also pays close attention to reproducibility, experimental controls and the difference between a plausible chemical pathway and one firmly supported by evidence.
Topics
Organic ChemistryThe study of the structures, properties, reactions and synthesis of carbon-based compounds and organic materials.
Computational ChemistryThe use of theoretical methods and computer simulations to investigate molecular structures, properties and chemical reactions.
Materials ScienceThe interdisciplinary study of how the structure and processing of materials determine their physical, chemical and functional properties.
