Profile Articles Activity

I'm an experimental condensed matter physicist who images atoms for a living. I've used microscopes that can see single atoms to watch molecular motors move and to probe the atomic-scale limits of magnetic data storage. At the University of Queensland, I lead a lab exploring new superconductors and semiconductors for quantum technologies. Before moving to Australia, I held postdoctoral fellowships in Austria and Germany, including as a Humboldt Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research.
