Science writer | Background in physics and nanomaterials

Profile Summary

My educational background is a degree in physics, after which I went on to do doctoral research specialising in quantum dots (University of Oxford, England). I have experience in numerical modelling, programming and writing, having published several articles in the past (see below). I have also tutored students in A-level physics, and helped to write and edit educational materials.
