• Current Position:

• Post Doctoral Research Associate, CSSM



• Career Biography:

I started my Bachelor of Science degree in 2002. While studying for this degree I participated in many University social clubs, including the presidency of the science club (SPACED) and beer appreciation club (Stein Club). I graduated from this degree in 2004.

In 2005 I completed my Honours year (graduating with first-class Honours) with the CSSM, producing a thesis based on my research of Quantum Hadrodynamics (QHD) and neutron star structure, supervised by Dr. A. C. Kalloniatis and Prof. A. G. Williams.

In 2006 I started my PhD, supervised by Prof. A. G. Williams. and Prof. D. B. Leinweber. This research focussed on the latest incarnation of the Quark-Meson Coupling (QMC) model as an extension of QHD [in that a quadratic dependence on the applied scalar field is the only differentiating feature between the two models] with the assistance received from Prof. A. W. Thomas [Jefferson Lab, VA].

My PhD is now complete, and I am currently a post-doctoral research associate with the CSSM.
