Experience

Daniel graduated from the University of Leicester in 2018 with a first class Masters degree in Physics. During his time at university, he undertook research projects ranging from alternatives to dark matter to the medical applications of nanotechnology. Daniel’s final year project investigated the application of Gaussian processes to noisy, seemingly random, data sets to reconstruct signals and predict their future values.

After graduating, Daniel took a graduate position at an international oil and natural gas field services company, where he was a key member in the team responsible for the signal processing and designing of resistivity tools, specifically those using the laws of induction.

Daniel joined HGF in 2019 as a trainee patent attorney working on matters relating to computer systems and software, telecommunications, electronics, and mobile device technologies.
