      • May 2021 - Jan 2022

      Assessed the potential exposure risk of clinicians during surgical procedures through quantification of the patient-originated aerosol at the site of the lead surgeon. AERosolisation And Transmission Of SARS-CoV-2 in Healthcare Settings (AERATOR) project, funded by NHIR and UKRI COVID-19 rapid response initiative. Demonstrated a live aerosol measurement on an episode of the BBC's Royal Institute Christmas Lectures.

    • PhD Researcher - Complex Functional Materials Group
      • Mar 2017 - Apr 2021

      Investigated methods to influence the growth of pharmaceutical crystals, with a particular aim to uncover new polymorphs of poorly soluble drugs and observe nucleation and early-stage crystallisation. Member of the collaborative MagnaPharm project across four specialist EU research groups.

      • Mar 2019 - Mar 2020

      Visiting researcher at the Bernal Institute, UL, worked on liquid-phase electron microscopy of pharmaceutical compounds in near-native organic solvent environments. UL's world-class microscope allowed direct observation of nucleation and early-stage crystallisation processes. Undertaken during my PhD as a part of the EU project MagnaPharm.
