Peter Grout

Peter Grout is a theoretical chemist at the University of Oxford. His main interests lie in the fields of defects in solids, the computer simulation of interfaces, and lattice dynamics of molecular crystals. [ [http://www.chem.ox.ac.uk/researchguide/pjgrout.html Dr P.J. Grout ] ]

Grout is a reader in physical and theoretical chemistry at the University College, Oxford. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_College,_Oxford] [ [http://www.chem.ox.ac.uk/teaching/tutors.html Undergraduate Course - Department of Chemistry - University of Oxford ] ]

He leads the "Grout Group" of the Physical and Theoretical Chemistry Laboratory, Oxford. Grout teaches first-year Mathematics for Chemistry of the Oxford Undergraduate Course, as well as the second-year Quantum Mechanics Supplementary course.
