Ben finished his PhD in physics at the University of Western Australia, in 2019 focusing on attempts to detect dark matter in the lab. He was a Naked Scientists intern in 2019, and now produces Naked Astronomy along with Adam Murphy.
Ben works with the ARC Centres of Excellence for Engineered Quantum Systems (EQUS), and Dark Matter Particle Physics (CDMPP), and on a dark matter detector known as "The ORGAN Experiment".
When he isn't looking for dark matter, he's usually talking about it, or looking for other great science stories to share with the world.
