Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences.Biography
Victoria received a BSc (Hons) in Chemistry and Molecular Physics in 2006 at the University of Nottingham (UK) and a PhD in Experimental Astrochemistry from Heriot-Watt University (UK) in 2011. This was followed by 2 postdoctoral positions at the University of Leeds under Prof John Plane exploring the interaction of gaseous species with bare and water-ice coated dust analogues in the atmospheres of Earth, Venus and Titan. In 2017, Victoria began her third postdoctoral position at the University of Surrey with Prof David Read characterising uranium-bearing natural geological minerals.
