Cindy Doran is the administrative assistant for the High Pressure Synergetic Consortium (HPSynC). HPSynC is dedicated to conducting high pressure synchrotron research at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) which is located within Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) in Illinois. She provides administrative support to the HPSynC staff, which consists of research scientists, engineers, and postdocs and oversees the day-to-day operation of the office. She comes to HPSynC with over 15 years of experience at ANL.

Malcolm Guthrie

Malcolm is a staff scientist at HPSynC. His main scientific focus lies in the characterisation of the structure of matter and its response to extremes of pressure and temperature. He is particularly interested in disordered condensed matter systems: orientationally disordered crystals, glasses and the liquid state. Amongst other materials, Malcolm has conducted research into the high-pressure phases of ice (both crystalline and amorphous); the archetypal network forming glasses: silica and germania; and clathrate hydrate systems including methane and ammonia hydrate. more »

Michael Lerche

Michael Lerche joined Carnegie in 2007 as a staff scientist at HPSynC. He received his Ph.D. in 2004 at the Universität Hamburg, Germany where he was working on x-ray optics to improve Synchrotron Mössbauer Spectroscopy experiments at HASYLAB. His post-doctoral position with the University of Illinois at Urban Champaign started his interest in high pressure physics. His current research interests are the structural and dynamical properties of liquids and amorphous metals.

Qiaoshi (Charles) Zeng

smysen — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 10:47:51 -0400

Charles is a visiting scientist. He started his doctoral studies specializing in structure of metallic glasses in material science and engineering at Zhejiang University, China. He developed a new Cerium based bulk metallic glass system and found an anomalous compression behavior in this system under high pressure. In September 2007, He came to GL as a Balzan Predoctoral Research Associate. He is working with Dr. Ho-kwang Mao and the High Pressure group. more »
