Huw studied dentistry in London, but decided that teeth were ‘not his thing’! He then went to the University of Wales Swansea and studied for a chemistry degree. He gained his Masters certificate at the University of Ohio before returning to Swansea to undertake a PhD in organic chemistry. Huw then worked at the university as a post-doctoral researcher and Lecturer in the field of separations technology, before joining the biotechnology company Molecular Nature as a Senior Natural Products chemist.

Huw has worked as an industry writer/journalist for dolffin since leaving Molecular Nature in 2003. He has undertaken many varied writing and editing assignments, writing and reporting on such topics as packaging, tobacco industry, mobile communications, on-shore/off-shore oil and gas, industrial and pharmaceutical technology, electronics and engineering – as well as many others!
