Alex Moorhouse

Alex Moorhouse is currently a PhD student at the University of Cambridge and will transfer to Columbia University in August 2025 to continue his PhD in theoretical condensed matter physics. Supervised by Prof. Michele Simoncelli, he develops computational tools to model bandstructures of quasiparticle excitations in complex materials.

At Cambridge, he studies at Jesus College under a Harding Distinguished Postgraduate Scholarship. Previously, he received a Master's degree in Theoretical Physics at the University of Durham and graduated with the D.A. Wright award. 

Outside of his studies, he enjoys walking and cycling in the countryside, reading classic literature, and visiting archaelogical sites.
