Post Doctoral Research Associate | Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophyscis, University of Manchester
Sustainable agriculture, data science, food supply chain, habitat conservation
My background is in astroparticle physics, and I'm currently doing post-doctoral research in radio astronomy. However, I have a growing passion for sustainable agriculture and food technology. I believe optimizing food production and related processes is crucial for addressing climate change. Given this interest, I'm open to transitioning from astronomy to climate science, particularly focusing on sustainable agriculture and farming. Many of my skills from physics and astronomy are transferable to this field, and I'm excited to explore new opportunities in this direction.
