We are proud to announce that Maximilian Lowe become our first SENSE student to be awarded a PhD degree on 16th September 2024.

Maximilian joined NERC SENSE CDT on 1st October 2020 and did his PhD at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) as a University of Edinburgh registered student under the supervision of Dr Robert Larter, Dr Tom Jordan and Dr Daniel Goldberg.

What’s next for Max?

Max has completed a 3-month Postdoc role at BAS and is taking up an exciting new role as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the satellite and airborne geophysics group at Kiel University. He has also submitted a Marie Curie Global Fellowship proposal between BAS and the University of Tasmania. We eagerly await the outcome!

Max’s first and second PhD chapters were published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth. His third chapter was published in the Geophysical Journal International.

SENSE would like to take this opportunity to thank our funder the Natural Environment Research Council, our partner institution the British Antarctic Survey, Max’s supervisors both at BAS and the University of Edinburgh, the examiners Dr Graeme Eagles and Prof Robert Bingham, our SENSE wider community, and Max’s family and friends, for their invaluable support and input into Max’s PhD journey.

From all of us at SENSE – congratulations! Wishing you all the very best in your future career in academia.
