Profile photo 
Upload your profile photo in Subscribe (opens in a new tab). Your profile photo in Pure is not linked to your public staff profile. Choose a clear, recent headshot where you are easily recognisable. Your image should be at least 340 by 395 pixels. 

Name 
To change your name or prefix title contact Ask HR (opens in new tab)  If you want to update an academic title you'll need to provide evidence e.g. a PhD certificate. The way your name is displayed is automatic and cannot be changed. You can also update your post-nominal letters in Subscribe (opens in a new tab).

Job title 
Raise a request through ServiceNow (opens in a new tab) to change your job title (40 characters maximum) unless you're on the ERE career pathway. If you're on the ERE path you can not change your main job title, but you can request other minor updates through Ask HR (opens in new tab). If you have more than one post only your main job title will display here, but you can add further posts or roles in other sections of your profile.

About

Professor Niblo carries out research at the interfaces between geometry, group theory, topology and analysis with a particular interest in the large scale geometry of spaces of non-positive curvature. He has worked with a number of colleagues in mathematics, science and engineering to explore these topics and some of their applications and have worked in departments including Sussex, Queen Mary College London and his current home, the University of Southampton.

Graham was awarded an SERC Postdoctoral Fellowship in 1988 and a Leverhulme Fellowship in 2011 during which he spent time at Exeter College, Oxford, and his research has also been funded by EPSRC, the Royal Society and the NSF. He has had the privilege of working with a number of fantastic postdocs, funded by organisations ranging from EPSRC to the Sino-British Trust:
