The Department of Physics has won the Athena SWAN silver award. This was presented to Sandra Beaufoy and Malcolm Cooper at an awards ceremony at the Royal Society on Thursday the 16th September. The Department of Chemistry also recieved a silver award and the University a Bronze award. There is only one science department in the country that recieved an Athena SWAN gold (University of York, Department of Chemistry). 

Athena SWAN awards recognise and celebrate good practice on recruiting, retaining and promoting women in science, engineering and technology in higher education. For more information please see the attached press release

Congratulations to Tony Arber, Steven Brown, Boris Gaensicke and Rudolf Roemer on their promotion to personal chairs, plus Peter Wheatley on his promotion to Reader. All promotions take effect from October 1^st 2010

Dr Jim Hague will be visiting the Physics department next week (15-19th February) on study leave, and will be located in room PS1.30 in Physical Sciences. Dr Hague completed his PhD here at Warwick in 2001 and is now a Lecturer in the Physics and Astronomy department at The Open University with interdisciplinary research interests in theoretical physics.

His main research activity is many body physics (both quantum and classical). He has worked on electron-phonon interactions and strong electronic interactions to investigate phenomena such as superconductors and Mott insulators. Recently, he has applied statistical physics techniques to problems in medicine and society, with the aim of gaining insight into embolic stroke, voter patterns, transport and path formation. He is also interested in the application of information theory techniques to advanced data analysis.
