Dr Laura Marcella Stecher

Research Associate

I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Prof Alex Archibald's group in the Centre for Atmospheric Science.
My research is on chemistry-climate interactions with a special focus on the greenhouse gas methane. Currently, I am working for the FETCH4 project, an international collaboration funded by Schmidt Sciences aiming at a better understanding of the past, present and future methane cycle.
