Elizabeth Williams completed her PhD in experimental nuclear structure at Yale University in December 2009. She completed postdoctoral work in experimental nuclear structure at Yale (2010) and in applied nuclear science at CSIRO in Sydney (2010-2011). She began working as a research fellow in nuclear reaction dynamics at the ANU in 2012, and currently holds an ARC DECRA fellowship.
Zain became involved with meriSTEM in his third year of univesrity, as part of a Research Topic in Physics course. He's now studying PhD in the ANU Research School of Physics. He says "I'm a big fan of the flipped classroom format - if done right it can allow students to engage at a much deeper level. As with any type of teaching, getting it right is ususally the hard part. By providing high-quality best practice content for free, meriSTEM is doing its part in supporting educators and students to make a better future."
