Dr Natalie Pridmore
Senior Experimental Officer carrying out service crystal structure determinations as well as instrument upkeep and maintenance.
Dr Oleg Dolomanov
Member of the OLEX2 team and OlexSys, who invented, developed and maintains the OLEX2 software. Oleg also maintains the DIMAS – database of the samples, submitted to the Deprtmental X-ray service
Professor Horst Puschmann
Member of OLEX2 team and OlexSys. Our work is based around the fact that almost all existing crystallographic software is relatively ancient and cannot be maintained neither by their originators (many of which are nearing retirement) nor meaningfully by anybody else, for lack of original documentation and, more importantly, the inherent…

Professor Judith A. K. Howard CBE FRS
Group leader and chairperson of OlexSys, with wide ranging research interests in the field of small molecule crystallography using both X-rays and neutrons. I have been involved in pushing the boundaries of the subject whether in the methodology, instrument development, dealing with difficult to handle materials or solving problematic structures.
Dr Dmitry S. Yufit
X-ray Service Manager responsible for day-to-day running of the Departmental Crystallography Service and in the maintenance of laboratory equipment. My own research interests include the in-situ crystallization of non-solid under ambient conditions compounds as well as structural studies of intermolecular interactions and polymorphism in low-melting molecular complexes.
Dr Andrei S. Batsanov
Senior Experimental Officer carrying out service crystal structure determinations. Research interests include intermolecular interactions, crystal packing, polymorphism and phase transitions of molecular crystals; structural effects on electric, magnetic and optical properties or organic and organometallic solids; transition-metal carboxylate clusters with O- and F-bridges.
