Personal statement
I have been actively engaged in research in optics and biophotonics since 2005. I have worked on a variety听of projects across a range of different fields linked with a common photonics theme. A feature of my work听is that I have worked extensively with multidisciplinary teams which have allowed me to develop a unique听and comprehensive skill set.
I am a current member of the researchers' group at the 糖心视频 and represent听researchers on the听Research and Knowledge Exchange Committee (RKEC).听
Qualifications
PhD in Physics (Awarded February 2011), titled: "Optical Properties of Capped Metallic Nanostructures Grown on Silicon".
BA mod in Physics and Chemistry of Advanced Materials 2006, 1st class honours.
