About me
Dr. Kevin Honeychurch is a member of
the Centre for Research in Biosciences and the Institute of Bio-sensing
Technology. His main research interests have been in the design, development
and application of pencil drawn and screen-printed carbon electrodes. He is
presently developing methods for the fabrication of silver electrodes
fabricated from compact discs for the determination of biologically and
environmentally important compounds. He is also undertaking a number of studies
utilising liquid chromatography with electrochemical, UV and MS detection
alongside gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) to elucidate the
environmental degradation and behaviour of several important pollutants and
nicotine in third-hand smoke. Dr. Honeychurch has published over 50 peer
reviewed papers in both electroanalysis and chromatographic science. His work is
regularly recorded as the most highly downloaded material for any researcher from
his faculty or research centre. Dr. Honeychurch is Chartered Chemist (CChem) and
an active member of the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). He is currently Co-Chair of the Bristol and District section of the RSC. He is an
active reviewer for world-leading international peer review journals (17),
including Analytical Chemistry (impact factor 5.636) and Environmental Science
and Technology (impact factor 5.228), and Biosensors and Bioelectronics (impact
factor 5.602). In addition, he regularly reviews for funding agencies such as
the BBSRC. He recently acted as editor for a book entitled "Nanosensors
for chemical and biological applications, sensing with nanotubes, nanowires and
nanoparticles" (Elsevier. ISBN 9780857096609) published in 2014. Presently
he is responsible for the supervision and assessment of undergraduate and
postgraduate project students undertaking their final year laboratory based
research projects and lectures and leads practicals on a number of courses both
at undergraduate and postgraduate level in forensic science, toxicology,
analytical chemistry, environmental science, information technology and
mathematics.
