My research studies solar flares, huge releases of energy in the Sun’s atmosphere. Solar flares provide us with an astrophysical laboratory for understanding processes such as magnetic reconnection and turbulence, and the production and properties of energetic particles. My work uses high energy observations (X-ray, EUV) to study flares and energetic particles at the Sun, and the creation of kinetic models to study particle acceleration and particle and X-ray transport effects in flares.��

I obtained my PhD in solar physics in 2014 at the University of Glasgow on the��before becoming a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Glasgow. In 2019, I joined ���ϲ����� as a Vice-Chancellor Fellow/Lecturer.

I am currently the Chair of the council.

Between 2016 and 2018 I received the following prizes for my research: European Geophysical Union (EGU) Solar-­Terrestrial Early Career Researcher Prize, European Physical Society (EPS) Solar Physics Division (ESPD) Early Career Researcher Prize, and the EPS Plasma Physics Thesis Prize.��

Selected current (and previous) grants/awards:

UKRI Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Consolidated Grant (2024-26) for “Determining Solar Flare Hard X-ray Directivity using Stereoscopic Observations with Solar Orbiter/STIX” (£248,301).��

UKRI Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) New Applicant Grant (2021-24)��for “Exploring the connection between solar flare energetic electrons observed at the Sun and in the heliosphere” (£372,452).��

In 2019-2020 I also led International Space Science Institute (ISSI) Bern team with Dr Frederic Effenberger (Helmholtz Centre, Potsdam, Germany) with the aim to understand the connection between different populations of energetic particles produced at the Sun and in the heliosphere, and how they can be used to further our understanding of astrophysical plasma processes and astrophysical particle acceleration in general.��
