Alex Murphy is an undergraduate student researcher with Prof. Guillaume Giroux at Queen’s University.
I am with PICO working on the PICO-500 Low Pressure Accumulator and degassing tank systems. I also help design and simulate fluid flow and heat transfer to optimize the PICO-500 cooling system. In my spare time I love tinkering with electronics, going on bike rides, and keeping up with technology. Feel free to contact me about working with PICO!
