New young scientist joins MRead - Matt Gerges

We are delighted to welcome Matthew Gerges to @MRead Ltd. He is our first scientist that we have recruited and he will be working very closely with the CSIRO team at Lucas Heights as we develop our new explosive and drugs sensor technology for field deployment. His academic pedigree is first class.

June 20, 2024

Matt comes with a very impressive scientific and educational background including a Bachelor ofEngineering (Honours) specialising in Mechatronic Engineering and a Bachelor ofScience specialising in Physics from the University of New South Wales. In addition, he is completing his PhD, which is based on a study of wind turbines for the South Pole.

Matt enjoys the theory, but he also likes getting his hands dirty, which is essential in the environment in which we operate, whilst his experience in robotics / mechatronics and automation, as well as his previous work on drones / UAVs with DefenceScience & Technology Group (DSTG), are key attributes for us. He also has a passion for design/ergonomics, which is critical for us as we design a sensor that is simple, robust and effective in the hands of those who need it most - the humanitarian deminers.

A very warm welcome to the MRead team!
