About me
I'm Leighton Jones, PhD (University of Leeds), a former postdoctoral researcher at Northwestern with Profs. George Schatz and Mark Ratner, and a co-author with Tobin Marks and Nobel laureate Sir Fraser Stoddart. I then joined CAS (American Chemical Society) as an Information Scientist. I've published 65+ papers (2,800+ citations) in journals including JACS, Joule and Nature Catalysis, and I write PhD-level chemistry questions for AI models as a contract AI Training Fellow. I edit manuscripts and write chemistry content. I use AI-assisted editing and writing, with every change reviewed by me.
