Articles by Max

Originally from London, left when I was 18 to pursue my studies (at Bristol Uni) and after a degree and PhD in Chemistry, I have worked both in private sector (1st half of my career) in research and since 2002 in the academic sector. I have lived in various areas of North West since 1991, and settled in Manchester since 2003. I am interested in a range of topics from Socio-Economic politics, Finance industry (its effect on people), sciences, music (avid classical music and opera fan, but listen to pop music half the time too) and I play the clarinet (competent amateur who has done all the exams). I have travelled all over the world and I'm interested in various cultures, particularly the diversity in Europe.
