Personal profile
Research interests
I am an Associate Professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy. I am interested in a number of topics under the broad heading of gravitational astrophysics, although I have a particular penchant for gravitational-wave astrophysics. I am a member of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array, which are two complementary experiments at the forefront of gravitational wave research.
