Dr Scott Findlay completed his PhD in Physics at the University of Melbourne in 2005. After a two-year postdoctoral stint in Melbourne, Scott moved to the Institute for Engineering Innovation at the University of Tokyo on a Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Postdoctoral Fellowship. He returned to Australia in 2011 to take up a QEII Fellowship in the School of Physics and Astronomy at Monash University, where he now continues as Senior Lecturer. His research centres upon using theory and numerical modelling to develop new approaches to imaging and quantitative analysis in scanning transmission electron microscopy.
