Matt graduated from Loughborough University in 2017 with a Masters degree in Chemistry. His fourth year project was on modelling dopants and ion migration in solid-state electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries. In his year before starting at the centre Matt worked in a formulation laboratory at Azelis, a multinational chemical distribution company. Outside of work, he enjoys fencing, playing with tech, and travelling to new places.
