Mr. Barnaby Parker currently works at an engineering consultancy (Frazer-Nash Consultancy) as a software engineer supporting a variety of modelling and process streamlining projects. Notably supporting analysis of nuclear graphite comprised moderator cores within the UK’s fleet of aging advanced gas-cooled reactors.

In 2016 he graduated with first class honours for his combined masters degree in materials science and engineering from the university of Oxford.
In his masters research year, Barnaby contributed significantly to the electrical instrumentation, automated experiment control, data processing methods and multi-physics modelling capabilities within Prof Richard Todd’s ceramics research group, enabling precise and repeatable investigation of flash sintering phenomena.

Barnaby’s current interests include leveraging OpenCL to build high performance statistical behavioural models for cold molecular traps in collaboration with PhD student Cameron McGarry to support cold matter and molecular computing research at Imperial College, London
