Emily graduated from the University of Bath in 2016 with a Masters in Chemistry. During her third year, she undertook an industrial placement at Merck Chemicals Ltd, where her research project involved the development and synthesis of organic photodiodes. For her Masters project, she studied the preparation of single source precursors for the deposition of tantalum disulphide using chemical vapour deposition. Outside academia she enjoys surfing, yoga and exploring new places.
