Dr Ganna (Anya) Gryn'ova MRACI (Student) graduated with a Master's degree in chemistry summa cum iaude from Dnipropetrovsk National University in Ukraine. She then moved to Australia to pursue her interest in applying computational chemistry to study reaction mechanisms and predict physical and chemical properties of the molecules. In 2013, she completed a PhD at the Australian National University under the supervision of Professor Michelle Coote. Her thesis, entitled 'Understanding and Manipulating the Reactivity of Nitroxides and Other Stable Free Radicals', is highly multidisciplinary and contributes to a better understanding of the role of free radicals in the degradation of industrial materials and biomolecules, as well to fundamental aspects of free radical chemistry and the nature of the polar effects.
