Biography
I completed my undergraduate studies (2008) and PhD (2012) both at the University of Nottingham. I then moved to the University of St Andrews to take up a post-doctoral position in the condensed matter theory group. My research has focused on providing theoretical descriptions of systems in which the effects quantum mechanics can be seen in macroscopic devices ranging from superconducting circuits to cavities filled with organic molecules.
