Andrew Ellis, professor of physical chemistry, has been appointed as a visiting Professor at the University of Innsbruck, Austria.

The guest appointment stems from an ongoing collaboration between professor Ellis and professor Paul Scheier at the Institute of Ion Physics. Their collaborative research involves the investigation of ions, both anions and cations, in liquid helium nanodroplets and has lead to several publications.

Professor Ellis’s first contribution at the University of Innsbruck was to give a lecture course on “Experimental and Computational Spectroscopy” to graduate physics students.
