She then went on to work as a GIS Technician for a geospatial solutions company before starting her PhD in October 2018. Lauren has carried out fieldwork across the UK and overseas, including Iceland and Greenland. Her main research interests include glacier and ice sheet change, ice sheet hydrology and the use of remote sensing and photogrammetric techniques to explore ice surface change.
