BSc (Hons) in Physics, University of Strathclyde Glasgow
MSc (Merits) in High Power radio Frequency Engineering, University of Strathclyde Glasgow
PhD in Space beam-wave interaction Physics, University of Strathclyde Glasgow
Karen’s initial research involved reproduction of Auroral Cyclotron emission mechanisms through laboratory experiments and simulations to investigate naturally efficient electron cyclotron radio emissions named Auroral Kilometric Radiation (AKR).
Before joining the Stokes Research Group, Karen was a Research Associate in the Space Mechatronics (SMeSTech) Laboratory at the University of Strathclyde. Where she worked on various projects including an intelligent land mobile robotic system platform for agricultural/space exploration applications and a Standard Interface for Robotic Manipulation (SIROM) of payloads in future space missions.
She has published in a wide variety of journals including Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, Royal Society of Chemistry Advances, Geoderma (global journal of soil science) and Plasma Sources Science and Technology.
Within the Stokes Research Group, Karen is working on the Connect-R project. The project’s aim to develop an industrial-scale self-building modular robotic solution to provide access to work-sites in hazardous environments.
