I am Professor of Computer Simulation and Head of the Institute for Condensed Matter and Complex Systems at The School of Physics in the College of Science and Engineering at The University of Edinburgh
I coordinated the EPSRC complexity research cluster Novel approaches to realistic networks of interacting autonomes.
PhD positions are available. Grants are available for highly qualified UK students, by applying to physics , and non-EU students through SUPA . Mention my name and area in your application if you want to work with me!
Living expenses for summer internships may be available for EU students. I can't pay travel or get you a work visa!
ICMCS has office/lab/computing space, and maybe travel, available for more senior visitors wanting to work with us.
For many years I taught Quantum Physics . Please feel free to plagiarise the notes, or if you're kind you might even acknowledge me.
This year it's Thermodynamics . Also, I contribute poultry-themed questions to Physics Skills And you can try some difficult physics problems

Back in the real world, I'm married to Jane and we have a young son, James.
Here's my photo and here (from 1994) was my idea of fun
In my spare time, I go jogging or orienteering with Interlopers . And I used to write Diplomacy Puzzles
