Philip Alan Gale (born 1969) is a British chemist and Head of the School of Chemistry at the University of Sydney.[1] He is notable for his work on the supramolecular chemistry of anions.[2]

Gale completed his DPhil at the University of Oxford in 1995 and moved to the University of Texas at Austin as a Fulbright Scholar. He returned to Oxford in 1997 as a Royal Society University Research Fellow and moved to a lectureship at the University of Southampton in 1999. He was promoted a personal chair in supramolecular chemistry in 2007 and served as Head of Chemistry at the University of Southampton between 2010 and 2016. He was awarded a Doctor of Science degree by the University of Oxford in 2014. In January 2017 he moved to the University of Sydney where he is currently Head of the School of Chemistry.[3]

Gale's research interests are in supramolecular chemistry and in particular the molecular recognition and transmembrane transport of anions. Recent work has focused on the design of new assays to measure anion transport and the development of selective transporters.[4]

Gale is listed as a Thomson Reuters/Clarivate Analytics Highly Cited Research in Chemistry from 2014 - 2017[5] and has received a number of awards for his research including the RSC Bob Hay Lectureship in 2004,[6] RSC Corday-Morgan Prize in 2005, a 2013 Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award, RSC Supramolecular Chemistry Award in 2014 [7] and the International Izatt-Christensen Award in Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry in 2018. [8]

Gale is the editor-in-chief of Coordination Chemistry Reviews [9] and the co-editor-in-chief of Supramolecular Chemistry [10]
