Welcome…

I’m Caroline Shenton-Taylor, or more simply Dr CST. I specialise in applied nuclear physics, using AI to advance solutions for tricky real-world problems. I am a lecturer based at the University of Surrey, before that I developed an industry group exploring novel ways to detect radiation. I’ve worked on a new kitchen fridge, launched a space balloon and tried to predict the weather - amongst other cool stuff. I love helping others advance their career and enjoyment of science. Which means I talk… on podcasts, radio, festivals, stand-up gigs, pubs, village halls, and of course the lecture theatre. I can do serious, but prefer to mix in the funny, amazing, and adventurous too.

How are you looking to advance?

  • For all things serious science, this is my uni academic page.

  • If you are curious about a career in academia, check out my YouTube channel which comes with a blog too.

  • Seeking to up your science knowledge with a fun talk, I give a range of public talks each year. No need to be a professional physicist, let me entertain you with some amazing science and tech advancements.

  • Want to record together? I love a good podcast and radio. Just get in touch.

  • Looking to celebrate academic life, then check out the new clothing store. For all those uni advancements and wins.

I looked on YouTube for Uni Lecturer channels and didn’t find many… so I started one and a lovely community has formed. Each week I pick up the camera and share tips, challenges, and the realities of life as a UK university lecturer. If you are thinking of a uni career, looking for other academics or simply intrigued about uni life - this channel is designed for you. So as they say, do hit subscribe, turn on those notifications and join our group.
