Biography
After a BSc. in Physics (Sheffield) I completed a PhD entitled "Development of Techniques of Resonance Ionization Mass Spectrometry for the Analysis of Xenon from Meteorites" (again, Sheffield, supervisor, Prof. G. Turmer). I moved to Manchester to take up a postdoctoral research position, and continued working on the same instrument. In 1994 I was awarded a University Research Fellowship by the Royal Society, and joined the academic staff in 2002.
Social responsibility
As part of our Earth & Solar System outreach team I am happy to give talks on my research and other planetary science topics to interested groups - please contact me at the email address above
I and our planetary science team can also provide speakers and activities for schools and science festivals, and support schools in using the STFC Moon and Meteorite Sample Loan Scheme (we were scientific advisers for the recent production of new support materials). Please contact me for details.
