I am a postdoctoral research associate in the X-ray scattering group. My current project involves using Bragg coherent X-ray diffraction imaging to look at the evolution of quantum materials during in situ conditions, including in the ultrafast (picosecond) regime. I am also working on computational approaches for structural correlations and using machine learning for phase retrieval.
