I have a Bsc in Physics and a PhD in High Energy Physics and have worked as a research fellow at CERN for 3 years, Rutherford Lab for 2 years and the JET Nuclear Fusion experiment for 5 years. Thereafter I worked at the Joint Research Centre in Italy until April 2008 working on Nuclear safety. Remote Sensing, and web technologies. I led the team developing media monitoring software  for the EU which summarised daily reports. 

This then led on to a health threat monitoring  system tracking Avian Flu. We developed this further to monitor any unusual health scare in multiple languages including Chinese. It was then a successful commercial spin off until  2010 and would surely have detected Covid early in  2019. I was  seconded to the African Union in Addis Ababa from  Nov 2007 until March 2008. I originally started this blog to record my experiences in Ethiopia. It started out as a travel blog, but has now morphed mainly into a science blog on climate. All results, views, opinions and errors are entirely my own fault and in no way reflect any stance of any previous employer.

I became interested in understanding the physics behind climate change after getting fed up with being told that the debate is over. Science is never a closed book and has a habit of turning round and biting those who think so.  This  explains why the blog now focuses on climate science.

I am basically a scientific sceptic but with a deep interest in other opinions and cultures.
