My research explores the limits to potential past, current and future life on Mars. My current projects are focussing on whether water retention in rock analogues at low pressure (current and past Martian pressures) and water retention due to salt crusts have implications for habitability. This includes experimental work using the Mars simulation chamber and computational modelling. I will also be experimentally exploring how the demise or non-existence of the Martian Nitrogen cycle could have affected Mars's habitability.

我的研究探索了火星上潜在的过去、现在和未来生命的极限。我目前的项目集中在岩石类似物在低压（当前和过去的火星压力）和水滞留由于盐壳是否对可居住性的影响。这包括使用火星模拟室和计算建模的实验工作。我还将通过实验探索火星氮循环的消亡或不存在如何影响火星的可居住性。
