I currently have multiple PhD students working with me: Ben Tragheim and Evie Ladbrook who are in their final year,Matt Edwards who is in his third year, and Beth Arnold and Jaskaran Mangat who are in the first year of study at Warwick. Dr Struan Simpson started a Postdoc position in my group funded by the EPSRC in 2022. Dr Craig Hiley and Dr Catriona Crawford joined the group in October 2022 and January 2023 respectively as part of a collaborative project with Professor Richard Walton funded by the Leverhulme Trust. Dr Cameron Wilson joined the group in October 2024, also on a collaborative Leverhulme Trust project, jointly with Professor Gabriele Sosso.
We also work closely with Dr Robin Sjokvist who is currently a Postdoc in the microscopy group in Physics, and with Dr Jere Tidey, a former group member who is now in the X-ray Diffraction Research Technology Platform.
