Two for two now, set up a diode with a RedWave controller this time!!
Super excited to be building up a laser system ‘by hand’ with these different devices!

🔬 New toy in the lab: just set up an Eagleyard laser diode to trap some spicy lithium atoms. First light + smooth threshold = good vibes!

Just a shot of Glasgow being amazing! 🤩 Felt a little blessed to be living here

I feel this so much, they’ll basically infect every system such that is ubiquity makes people use it, not it’s utility
AI is just microplastics for software. It's polluted every app and slowly killing them.

First day back as a postdoc and I had forgotten how chaotic, but weirdly energising academia can be!

Quite a cool initiative! 😎
Seen smth like this work quite well for local artists/musicians!

We have a new project: Made in Your Community!
With support from @skypeascientist.bsky.social , we’re creating beautiful double-sided cards that feature local scientists and their work — all placed in local cafes, breweries, and community spaces.

Thinking about making a zine to explain the research I do - basic quantum physics and AMO science -in a more creative, accessible way.
If you’ve made a science zine (or seen cool ones), I’d love to check them out! #inspiration

Studying up on ultracold fermionic systems…
Blown away by how BEC–BCS theory threads through so many systems—from ultracold atoms to neutron stars. The universality of condensed matter never ceases to amaze me.
Quantum matter shows up everywhere! 🧊🌌

After my PhD, I joined a quantum startup- grateful for the opportunity to involved in the nascent quantum industry.
But my love for ultracold atoms couldn’t be quenched!
Will return to academia to once again create cool physics in the lab!
Excited for what’s next!

Recently went to Portland, Oregon and paid a visit to @powells.bsky.social. It’s an amazing place, an entire city block of books! Spent 4 hours and bought three books 😆

Stumbled upon one of (many) my favourite pictures from my PhD was when our atomic gas reorganised itself into what looked like modern art!

Picked this up randomly in a train station bookshop. Supposedly there is resurgence in popularity..
Can see why, pretty much read it in one sitting! Amazing read, existential in the most literal sense!
The book cover’s great too
