I am a Professor of Natural Philosophy at the University of Cambridge, working jointly between the Institute of Astronomy and Department of Earth Sciences.
My research concerns the search for life in the universe and the conditions on planets that allow life to emerge and be sustained.
Much of my academic life has been spent at The University of Cambridge, first as an undergraduate on the Natural Sciences Tripos, then as a PhD student in the Department of Earth Sciences and then as a Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College. I have also worked at The Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, Caltech where I was the Geology Option Postdoctoral Research Fellow and in Japan as a JSPS postdoctoral fellow and Adjunct Researcher, working with colleagues in the Institute for the Study of the Earth’s Interior.
