Chris obtained his PhD in physics in 1993 from the University of East Anglia, England. He then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Guelph in Canada for four years. In 1997 he returned to England as the deputy instrument scientist on the SANDALS liquids diffractometer at the ISIS spallation source. In February 2000 he took up the position of GLAD instrument scientist at IPNS, USA. Chris's scientific interests span the structure and dynamics of disordered materials. In particular, the isotopic substitution technique in neutron diffraction, high energy x-ray diffraction, inelastic neutron Brillouin scattering and more recently molecular dynamics simulations.  See a list of publications.

Joan received her MS in electrical engineering in 1997 and her MS in physics in 2000.  Both degrees were completed at Northern Illinois University.  She started work as the GLAD scientific associate in 2001.  She enjoys writing about herself in the third person and, in her spare time, moves objects around the office with her mind.  She sometimes wonders if anyone actually ever reads this stuff.  If so, she hopes you aren't her supervisor.
