Dr Jonathan Storey

Jon loves designing and building things. His projects range from advanced spectrometers to handmade bookshelves. His home showcases the results of years of engineering creativity!

Outside work, Jon is a devoted husband and father. He enjoys sharing scientific ideas and experiments with his teenage daughter. He also appreciates a good roast dinner and a glass of wine. On Sundays, he often visits his local carvery before enjoying a walk home.

In recent years, Jon has taken up archery, although he insists it has nothing to do with Katniss Everdeen. He also enjoys reading and rarely misses the chance to discuss science fiction. Favourite topics include the greatest sci-fi film of all time and the enduring appeal of classics such as Battlestar Galactica and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.

When he is not debating science fiction, Jon can usually be found enjoying something Star Wars-related or attending Comic-Con events.
