Hi all,
I thought I'd break the ice slightly and introduce myself to the department (at least cyberly). My name is Paul Bennett. I've recently come from the University of Daubechie in France where I was doing a post doctorate in wavelets with Professor Biespiel.
I'm really excited about starting at the University of Haarville and the department, tossing new research ideas about with you guys, getting involved with the nitty gritty admin stuff, and more importantly, cultivating the next wave of young academics. I've got a few plans up my sleeve on how I can make the department more modern but I'll save that for the next staff meeting! But feel free to contact me if you want anything done and think I'll be any help; I've love getting my hands dirty.
A few fun facts about me: I'm a Capricorn. When I'm not researching (which is quite rare these days!), I'm usually looking after my bee colony and producing fantastic honey. I've been married for two years to the brilliant Elaine who is an Alternative-Arts teacher.
Looking forward to meeting you all!
Paul
