• Rank: Senior Lecturer

Her research aims to establish predictive models linking atomic structure to macroscopic properties, aiding both materials design and geological hazard prediction. Key methods include neutron diffraction with isotope substitution, X-ray diffraction, and molecular dynamics simulations.

Recent publications highlight structural transformations in aluminosilicates, magnesium silicates, and NASICON systems under pressure. Her work has applications in optoelectronics, geophysics, and nuclear waste storage. She leads projects such as the Mercator Fellowship and collaborates internationally on high-pressure material characterization.
