Donate to help me raise much-needed funds for #menshealth this #Movember – for all the dads, brothers, sons and mates in our lives. Stop men dying too young. movember.com/m/14976308?mc=6
Felt like I was missing out on the moving bandwagon. Not knowing any better we made a small dent in the #LISA foreground noise! arxiv.org/abs/2307.02553
You are looking for a PhD position in astronomy and have some experience working with spectroscopic data? Come and work with me on resolved stellar populations in nearby galaxies at the Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy @durham_uni astro.dur.ac.uk/CEA/index.php?…
Accretion and more! Abstract submission deadline in 2 weeks. astro.dur.ac.uk/vam2023/index.…
I'm pleased to announce a postdoctoral research position to work with me and my group on dusty outflows in nearby Seyfert galaxies, using spectacular Cycle 1 #JWST data. Apply here: jobs.ncl.ac.uk/job/Newcastle-…
We have a heart-breaking update to share on our missing friend and colleague, Professor Tom Marsh. The body found by search teams in Chile last week has been confirmed to be Tom. We send our deepest condolences to his family, colleagues, students, and friends.
Spectacular image. Literally jaw-dropping. We can now peer further through the depth of time in unprecedented detail. We are literally on the verge of discoveries that will change our perception of who we are and where we come from, but do you know who JW is? Exactly, me neither!
When people ask what Download is really like:
BlackGEM Phase 1 array nearing completion. Three telescopes all installed, and now also with each their own weather station.
New postdoc opening at TTU. If you're interested in accretion physics and/or machine learning do apply! TTU has a great department and @BlackGEM_Array is awesome! jobregister.aas.org/ad/1e4bd715?fb…
Anyone in Pasadena in July who can either a) host me on the couch for a week or b) want to share an Airbnb? #cospar2018
Here we go!! Construction for BlackGEM at @ESO_Chile La Silla has started with the removal of the GPO building!
