\textbf{Hi Matthew, what is your favorite aspect of your research?}

\emph{Talking with students and post-docs about their latest data and
ideas. I still get excited to see the first NMR spectra, or radio-HPLC
data from new reactions and discuss what the outcome might mean.}

\emph{For me working in the field of radiochemistry is very fulfilling
as you can apply chemistry to help solve challenges in synthesizing
radiotracers or answering questions in biology. Nuclear medicine brings
together so many people with different backgrounds which makes it such a
stimulating research area to work in.}

~

\textbf{~What is your vision of the future of
radiochemistry/radiopharmacy/nuclear medicine?}

\emph{From a radiochemist's perspective, there are lots of exciting new
reactions that have been reported in the last few years. These methods
are starting to bring down the barriers that made radiochemical
synthesis difficult and restrictive in regard to substrate scope. With
more tools available for radiochemical synthesis it will be interesting
to see how these methods impact on the development of new radiotracers
towards the clinic.}

~

\textbf{What is your opinion on why young researchers should choose
radiochemistry as their research discipline?}

\emph{Radiochemistry is truly interdisciplinary and allows you to
explore many areas of science by working with experts outside of your
own immediate field of specialization. This mix of scientific
backgrounds provides a fantastic training experience, as well as a broad
overview of the research landscape.}

\par\null

\textbf{Do you have encouraging advice for young researchers to succeed
in the world of science?}

\emph{Take on projects and research that really excite and interest you.
If you enjoy the research that you're doing it helps the other things
fall into place.}

\par\null

\textbf{If I were not a scientist, I would be \ldots{}}

\emph{Most likely working in the countryside -- perhaps an agronomist.~}

~

\textbf{Who inspired you to choose this field/science?}

\emph{I was fortunate to have excellent science teachers during my time
at High School. My two chemistry teachers in particular were fantastic
and really inspired me to study chemistry at University.}

\textbf{What do you in your spare hours?~}

\emph{Running and swimming. Also prone to losing weekends reading
fantasy/sci-fi book series!} \emph{}\textbf{}
