I am a physicist with research interests in geoscience.
I work at School of GeoSciences (University of Edinburgh) as project manager, currently for two projects: BORTAS, which investigates the impact of boreal forest fires in Canada on atmospheric chemistry, and EarthTemp, a network to stimulate new international collaborations between researchers who measure the surface temperatures of Earth. My tasks include the general planning and coordination of these projects, tha data management and the dissemination of the results to the wider community and the general public.
The dissemination of scientific methods and the promotion of critical thinking to the general public is one of my main interests. Therefore my second professional basis is my work as a freelance Editor, Translator and Author — more information can be found at Science Texts.
