Sam Kersley

Research Software Associate

Sam studied his BSc and MRes at Portsmouth in geology and geochemistry. More recently he has been conducting research at The Open University in metamorphic petrochronology of geochronometers from the Himalayas and Scandinavian Caledonides, using mass spectrometry and EDS/BSE/CL/WDS SEM techniques to develop models for mineral evolution relative to absolute time within convergent tectonic plate margins.

Sam has been focusing on the interpretation of geochemical and geochronological data from inorganic crystalline materials, however he would like to learn and apply his skills more towards the utilities of computational microscopy and coding.
