A day in the lab with...Dave Hughes in the Stable Isotope Facility

The Stable Isotope Facility is a suite of labs in LEC 1. They analyse samples for LU staff and students, as well as other universities and private customers. The lab is centred around two isotope ratio mass spectrometers (IRMS) that are used for analysing the non-radioactive isotopes in environmental samples. Dave Hughes has been the lab manager for 15 years, and has a background in geology, industry and as a cartoonist for Geoscientist magazine.
