Oli is the co-founder of Digichem and servers as its Project Lead. He is also Digichem’s chief programmer, and is responsible for maintaining our code-base. A researcher in the field of optolelectronic materials, Oli finds himself drawn to projects that occupy the niche between synthetic and computational chemistry. He completed his PhD at the University of St Andrews under the supervision of Prof. Eli Zysman-Colman, where the collaboration that lead to Digichem was first born. A self-taught programmer, Oli is fluent in Python and various web-languages, although he’d be the first to admit that he rarely finds call to program in PHP these days.
