Dr. Peter Grout is a world renowned, Theoretical Chemist working 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^[1].

Peter is a reader of physical and theoretical chemistry at the prestigous University College, Oxford (the oldest Oxford college^[2])^[3] . He leads the "Grout Group" situated of the ground floor on the Physical and Theoretical Chemistry Laboratory, Oxford. Grout teaches the first year Mathematics for Chemistry course of the Oxford Undergraudate Course, as well as the 2nd year Quantum Mechanics Supplementary course.^[4]

Grout attended Varndean Boy's School - now Varndean College in Brighton^[5], leaving in 1956.
