Andy McIntosh

Andy McIntosh is professor of Thermodynamics and Combustion Theory at the University of Leeds in Britain. He is the author of Genesis for Today (2010), a book on creationism.

Research

McIntosh's research group at University of Leeds has developed a technology known as µMist which is based on the gaseous "cannon" of the bombardier beetle. In 2010, this work was recognized as an "outstanding contribution to innovation and technology" by Times Higher Education at an award ceremony in London.
