His contributions have included discoveries in the stabilisation of low-oxidation state and metal-to-metal bonded systems. He developed novel compound types which has prompted a re-evaluation of what is achievable synthetically. In 2006 Jones became Professor of Chemistry at Monash University, later being appointed to the R. L. Martin Distinguished Chair of Chemistry.19841984Education - Bachelor of Science (BSc(Hons)), University of Western Australia19851987Career position - Research Officer, Department of Surgery, University of Western Australia19921992Education - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Griffith University19921994Career position - EPSRC Postdoctoral Fellow, University of Sussex, United Kingdom19941998Career position - Lecturer in Inorganic Chemistry, Swansea University, United Kingdom19961996Career position - Royal Society of Chemistry J.
