Bio: I am an STFC Ernest Rutherford Fellow at the University of Edinburgh (grants ST/K004646/1 and ST/M004058/1). My research focuses on looking for signs of CP violation and exotic hadron spectroscopy with the LHCb experiment at CERN. Since 2014 I have been physics coordinator of the LHCb-UK community. Recently I have started investigating novel photo-sensors for the future long-baseline neutrino experiment, Hyper-Kamiokande, in Japan. I teach on the Edinburgh Numerical Recipes course and occassionally lecture particle physics to the Masters' students. I organise the Edinburgh particle physics seminar programme: please get in touch if you would like to come and visit the group.
