Education

Grey received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1987 followed by a Doctor of Philosophy degree in chemistry in 1991, both from the University of Oxford. Her doctoral thesis, under the supervision of Anthony Cheetham, used nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magic angle spinning (MAS) to study rare-earth pyrochlores.[7]

Career and research

After a postdoctoral research position at the University of Nijmegen and a period as a visiting researcher at DuPont, she was appointed a professor at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. In 2009, she became the Geoffrey Moorhouse Gibson Professor in Materials Chemistry at the University of Cambridge.[8]

From 2009 to 2010 she was the Director of the Northeastern Chemical Energy Storage Center, and associate director 2011-2014. She is current the director of the EPSRC Centre for Advanced Materials for Integrated Systems.[9]

Grey's research[1][10][11] specialises in applications of nuclear magnetic resonance[12][13] and its use to study lithium ion batteries.[4][14][15][16]

Awards and honours

Grey was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2011[4] and awarded the Günther Laukien Prize in 2013[17] followed by the Davy Medal in 2014 for "further pioneering applications of solid state nuclear magnetic resonance to materials of relevance to energy and the environment."[4]
