Every year an academic panel at our University judges the papers published by the whole Engineering Faculty. Happy to say my paper has been judged as the best (!). Thanks to collaborators including @SuperFishiAl @Emily_F_Smith and many more @UoNEngineering @UoNnmRC

My final first author research article from my PhD was published in Analyst. OrbiSIMS depth profiling tracked the growth of polyaromatic species in carbon deposits. I cannot thank everyone on this paper enough for making this possible. #Sims pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Yesterday I ran my first 50k Ultra Marathon, I was happy at the start, midway and end of the race as photos show! Very muddy - but so happy this has been a long time of training and years of building up from less than 5k and I never thought I'd get there but here we are 😀

'The Analytical Scientist' magazine has featured me in their latest issue in the section on up and coming early career researchers! I discuss my research using the 3D OrbiSIMS technique at the University of Nottingham😀 lnkd.in/d_WR4RbJ - find me on page 51!

Been a long time since giving an 'in person' talk at a conference. Now I have 2 in the space of a 3 days 🙃 Luckily the first is in Nottingham!

My second paper! 😊 Carried out these DFT calculations at University of Barcelona @IQTCUB @BSC_CNS with Dr Calle-Vallejo and a grant from @HPCEuropa3 . A truly wonderful experience and exciting to see the first of the results being published! sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

I do not feel 25, perhaps the year lost to covid means I can say I'm 24 instead. Still lucky to be abroad for it 😀

Another long piece that I had the pleasure to work on whilst on my placement at the Library. It took a lot of thinking to wrangle all of this information into an briefing that hopefully is informative and useful 😄😄 enjoy!
In 2019, total public and private expenditure on Research and Development in the UK was £38.5 billion – the highest level on record. This represented 1.74% of GDP in 2019. What is the current R&D funding landscape? ow.ly/29TX50FLRyK

I don't just run and research, sometimes I go to see nice views

A perfect bank holiday in a few pictures. Exercise, beer and dog...

First race post lockdown with @StringaTheory and @kieran_housley. 16.5 km in 1:09:00, considering the awful weather I'm very happy. So good to be back to in person events.

Currently searching for a PhD internship in the statistical genetics realm for early 2022 (preferably in the USA) - any advice would be greatly appreciated!
