Chemical Sciences Analytical Spectrometry Quality Assurance, Chemometrics, Traceability and Metrological Chemistry Separation Science Forensic Chemistry

I am an active researcher in the fields of analytical and forensic chemistry, and I lead the Forensic and Analytical Chemistry Research Group within the Nanochemistry Research Institute at Curtin. My research interests are focused on chemical techniques applied to forensic analysis, in particular fingerprint detection, decomposition chemistry and trace evidence.
