Stephen has research interests in Mass Spectrometry (MS): Applications and
Fundamentals. The Mass Spectrometry User Resource and Research Facility (MSURRF) at UOW
houses a range of sophisticated instrumentation for the detection and characterization of
molecular species based on their mass/charge ratio.
