Tom also has experience with medical devices, substance detection systems, near-field communication devices and engines.
Academic
Tom graduated from UCL with a MSci in theoretical physics. His course covered a range of different subject areas within maths, physics and engineering. His master’s project focused on developing computational methods to improve the modelling of molecular energy levels in molecules, so that the composition of exo-planetary atmospheres could be analysed with greater reliability.
Other areas covered during his time at university included molecular spectroscopy, classical mechanics and fluid dynamics, stochastic calculus, electromagnetism, lasers and quantum physics.
