EARLY CAREER ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE
Archit Mehra, Committee Chair
University of Manchester, PhD
Archit is a third year PhD student at the University of Manchester in partnership with Aerodyne Research Inc. His work focuses on using novel mass spectrometric techniques to quantify trace gases and establish the sources of and chemistry leading to secondary organic aerosol formation in urban megacities. He hopes to build on prior conference experiences to devise a fun and useful early careers programme for IGAC2020.
Frederick Otu-Larbi

Frederick Otu-Larbi
University of Lancaster, PhD
Fred research focuses on the role of canopy processes in biosphere-atmosphere exchange of reactive trace gases and aerosols. Fred plans to bring his experience from IGAC2018 and other conferences to make sure early career scientists as much as possible from the programme.
Jessica Slater
Frederick Otu-Larbi
Frederick Otu-Larbi
University of Manchester, PhD
Jessica's research focuses examining the interactions between aerosols, radiation and meteorology to understand how this feedback enhances pollution levels. Jessica hopes to bring her knowledge of Manchester and the surrounding areas, as well as her experience from other conferences to help make this IGAC early careers programme one of the best yet.
Tomás Sherwen
Frederick Otu-Larbi
Emily Matthews
University of York, Research Scientist
Tomás work focuses on numerical modelling, both at global/regional scales and using novel machine-learning techniques, to explore science questions from Criegee intermediates to sulfur cycles to sea-surface concentrations. Tomas is the most experienced researcher on the ECS committee, and plans to use this experience to provide a programme that will aid ECS to go into a career in academia.

Emily Matthews
University of Manchester, PhD
Emily's research focuses on using real-time aerosol instruments to characterise marine aerosols, appoint sources and to parameterise their emission fluxes over oceans. This will be Emily’s first international conference and she hopes to use this opportunity to build international connections with other scientists whilst gaining experience in the organising of such an event.
Eloise Slater

Eloise Slater
University of Leeds, PhD
Eloise's work focuses on measuring radical species (OH, HO2 and RO2), that are important atmospheric oxidation and formation of secondary pollutants. Eloise was fortunate enough to attend IGAC2018 in Takamatsu and hopes to bring her experiences from this conference to make the early career programme at IGAC2020 a success, providing a conference programme where ECS can thrive.
Matt Amos
Emily Matthews
Eloise Slater
University of Lancaster, PhD
Matt's work focuses on analysing output from chemistry-climate model ensembles and merging research from both data scientists, statisticians and environmental modellers. He was fortunate to attend IGAC2018 in Takamatsu and plans to learn from this experience to be part of the team creating an exciting programme for early career scientists when IGAC is next hosted in Manchester.
