Dr Georgia Orton

Georgia completed her MChem (Europe) at the University of Sheffield in 2015, including a year at The University of Bordeaux. Following this, she joined the Hogarth group at King’s College London for a PhD focusing on producing biomimics of the iron-only hydrogenase enzyme as electrocatalysts for hydrogen oxidation. In 2019, Georgia joined the Champness group, initially in Nottingham and later in Birmingham, to work on metal-organic frameworks for mechanistic studies of reactions within frameworks. Georgia held a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowship from 2023 – 2026 before taking up a Royal Society University Research Fellowship in October 2026.
