Biography
Following my PhD in physical chemistry at the University of Leeds, I started a position as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow. My current research area is in cloud microphysics, the understanding of cloud formation by quantifying the chemical and physical processes that occur in our atmosphere through laboratory experiments. My particular area of focus is the determination of the crystalline phase of ice that forms under cirrus cloud conditions.
My postdoctoral position is part of the ERC research funding grant for the project on Ice Crystallisation Experiments (ICE).
