Controlling spins with phonons: Atomistic Modeling of Spin-Lattice Interactions

Personal profile

Biography

I am currently a Lecturer in the Department of Computer Science and member of the Nano-Engineering and Spintronic Technologies (NEST) Research group at University of Manchester.

I obtained my PhD in computational magnetism in 2021 at University of York, then moved to a postdoctoral position at University of Edinburgh, working on 2D magnetism. Afterwards I returned to York as a research software engineer funded by the national supercomputer ARCHER2 via eCSE.  

Research interests

My current research interests are in developing advanced models of magnetic materials for both fundamental studies (such as spin-lattice interactions) and technological applications (in data storage, biomedicine, machine learning etc ).
