Personal profile
Overview
My research focuses on the chemistry of radioactive elements in environmental systems. This includes fundamental chemical behaviour of radionuclides, including uranium and technetium, analytical techniques for interrogating the chemical form of these radionuclides, and the application of this knowledge to real world systems. I am interested in the chemical processes that dictate the environmental mobility of radionuclides, such as reduction and oxidation reactions, and studying these processes using laboratory and synchrotron methods including X-ray absorption spectroscopy.
