Before joining us at the Cretan Matter-Waves Mark did his undergraduate studies in Brisbane, Australia, at the University of Queensland (1996-1998). This was followed by an 18 month stint or work and study in Perth at the University of Western Australia (UWA).
In 2000 he returned to Brisbane, and from 2001-2006 he undertook his PhD studies in metastable atomic beam lithography at the Centre for Quantum Dynamics, Griffith University, under the supervision Dr. Robert Sang and Prof. W. MacGillivray.
