Dr. Alex Hubert

I graduated from the University of Kent with an MPhys in 2014. I then decided with overwhelming naivety to take on the challenge of a PhD at Warwick. To my great surprise, I successfully completed it in September 2019!
I love giving presentations, both scientific and non-scientific. I was a frequent speaker at the Warwick physics postgraduate seminar series and a finalist of the Warwick 3MT competition. Currently, I am writing a series of talks and articles on wellbeing using stories from my own life, as well as looking for a new job.

I am working on using D-LACBED data to refine the structural parameters of inorganic crystals. Most notably atomic positions and Debye-Waller factors. To do this I have used and contributed to the Bloch-wave simulation software felix. ​​
