Biography

I am an applied mathematician at the University of St Andrews, conducting research in solar physics.

Research areas

In particular, my major areas of research are:

• the evolution of the Sun's global magnetic field;
• coronal heating via nanoflares;
• diagnosing the nature of 3D magnetic reconnection.

For further information, please see my personal website.
