Author name: Luke Daly

Academic bio Luke Daly is a new post-doctorate researcher at the University of Glasgow and part of the Solar System Volatiles research group lead by Professor Martin Lee. Prior to this he obtained an MSci in Geology from Imperial College London 2012 and a PhD at Curtin University, Australia in early 2017. Luke’s research interests in Planetary Science centre around the analysis of primitive meteorites to extract information about solar system formation and asteroid evolution. In particular evaluating the micro-structure, geochemistry and isotopic features of minute sub-micrometre materials using techniques such as the atom probe, which is capable of analysing individual atoms. These allow us to analyse meteorites and, by extension, the processes that formed them in unprecedented detail.
