Biography

A theoretical plasma physicist with a decade of numerical, experimental, and industrial research experience, Scott’s publication record spans the study of fundamental low-temperature plasma physics to advanced magnetic confinement techniques. His research has found direct and indirect application in areas ranging: aerospace and defense, plasma materials manufacture, plasma-driven solution electrolysis, and nuclear fusion.

Interdisciplinary Research and Innovation Symposium 2024

Hosted by the Interdisciplinary Institute, we invite staff and students to join the Interdisciplinary Research and Innovation Symposium on Wednesday 4 September. The event will provide an exciting opportunity to highlight the latest developments in interdisciplinary research and innovation taking case studies from across the University of Aberdeen. To submit an abstract (deadline 16 August) or register to attend visit our event page.
