My major areas of research interest are:

• Transition metal organometallic chemistry:
  Chemistry of cyclopentadienyl complexes with electron withdrawing substituents
• Determination of crystal structure by X-ray diffraction
• Crystal polymorph analysis:
  The application of combined X-ray powder diffraction and spectroscopic methods using chemometrics for polymorph analysis. 
• Crystallographic computing:
  Development of methods for crystal habit prediction.
