Dr. Michelle (Gregor) Marshall received her B.A. degree in Physics from the State University of New York College at Geneseo in 2011 and her M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from the University of Rochester in 2013 and 2017, respectively. Her graduate thesis work was done at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, where she studied diamond under shock compression and release at conditions relevant to indirect-drive inertial confinement fusion experiments. Dr. Marshall then worked at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, first as a postdoc and later as research scientist, doing dynamic compression experiments. She joined the Laboratory for Laser Energetics as a scientist in the High-Energy-Density Physics Experiments group in 2020. Her expertise is in equation-of-state and phase-transition measurements of shock- and ramp-compressed materials using in-situ velocity interferometry, optical pyrometry, and x-ray diffraction techniques.
