Biography

Since July 1997 I have been employed at the University of Sussex, firstly as a PPARC Research Fellow and then since February 2007 as a Senior Lecturer in The Department of Engineering and Design (School of Science and Technology). Prior to this I was employed in the Physics Department at the University of Warwick. I have also been employed teaching various Science courses for the Open University. In 2006 I was selected to take part in the Royal Society MP-Scientist pairing Scheme.

Role

Senior lecturer in the Department of Engineering and Design. Reseach on signal processing and electromagnetic simulation. Collaboration on educational projects with The Royal Academy of Engineering. 

My research interests are based around signal processing, electromagnetic simulations and space science. I have worked on developing instrumentation software and data analysis techniques for the ESA/NASA four spacecraft Cluster II mission and the ESA/China Double Star mission (which investigate near Earth Space and the Sun-Earth connection). In 2004 I recieved the NASA Group Achievement Award and in 2005 the European Space Agency  Certificate for Outstanding Contribution for work on the Cluster II space mission. I also have particular expertise in developing numerical simulation codes applied to electromagnetic processes such as ion engines and EEG signals.

I have taught on a variety of courses (25+) in engineering, physics,  mathematics and computing at various levels and using different teaching methods. I also teach foundation year tutorials and act as an academic advisor to students.

I am currently responsible for the following courses in the School of Engineering and Design:

Principles of Technology (Autumn Term, Foundation Year 0/year 1)

Selection of Materials 1 (Spring term , year 1)

Selection of Materials 2 (Spring term, year 1)

Practical Electronics in Society (Summer term, year 1) 

Engineering for Environment/Development Applications (Spring/Summer, year 2)

Space Systems (Spring Term, year 3)

I worked with Mathematics department colleagues on the development of a new course "Mathematical Skills in Engineering and Design" (Spring/Summer term, year1) and helped specify the course content. I previously convened and lectured on the course Digital Systems and Mircoprocessors (Spring Term, year 1)
