Biography
Ocean works at the Division of Nanotechnology and Functional Materials at Uppsala University, Sweden. Ocean grew up in the small town of Monmouth, UK. He holds a Master of Chemistry (MChem) degree from the University of Warwick, UK and a PhD in Materials Chemistry from Stockholm University, Sweden. His PhD work was carried out under the supervision of Prof. Niklas Hedin on the development of narrow pore zeolites and related materials for carbon dioxide sorption. After completing his PhD Ocean was a postdoc in Prof. Maria Strømme‘s group at Uppsala University. After another postdoc position at Heriot-Watt University, UK he returned to Uppsala University as a senior researcher. Ocean has received a number of prestigious awards including the “Swedish King Gustafs 50th Birthday Award for Sciences, Engineering and Environment“ in 2018 and the “Oscar Prize for young scientists“ in 2020
