Incredibly grateful to my family, friends, colleagues and mentors for their support in becoming a Northwestern Presidential Fellow!

I defend my Thesis on Monday! Check out this fun flyer I made for my defense!

Congratulations to Dr. Genevieve Schroeder (Dr. Genevieve Schroeder) on her successful defense today! She showed the sheer power of radio observations for GRBs, and her novel observing strategies are responsible for the recent increased detection rate of short GRBs. Next stop: New York!

At the end of the month, Overleaf won't allow adding co-authors via link sharing any longer without a paid account. It will in fact also roll back on current projects

Congratulations to Prof. Wen-fai Fong of Fong Group at Northwestern and CIERA for being awarded Steward Observatory's 2024 Marc Aaronson Prize! We look forward to hosting you in the Fall for our colloquium and public evening lecture series. Read more: bit.ly/467qE0t

Final paper of grad school is officially out!

Congratulations to Dr. Tyler Heintz, who successfully defended his PhD dissertation today at Boston University. Tyler has done fantastic work characterizing the reliability of using white dwarf stars as age indicators!

You WILL get your PhD

If there's a transients conference in the Midwest, you bet that CIERA is going to show up bigtime! Thanks for the great conference Purdue Physics&Astro! #risetime #besttime

🚨Paper Alert🚨 Do you like heavy elements, kilonovae, GRBs or compact object mergers? Check out this 🧵 on the freshly-submitted "Uniform Modeling of Observed Kilonovae: Implications for Diversity and the Progenitors of Merger-Driven Long Gamma-Ray Bursts" led by Jill Rastinejad

I realized I never updated twitter but at the beginning of September I started as a Postdoc Cornell University working with Prof. Anna Ho on (surprise surprise) the radio follow up of transients!

We are looking to grow our group by two postdocs next year! If interested in time-domain and/or multi-messenger astronomy, please see our ad for more! Deadline Dec 20: aas.org/jobregister/ad… 🔭

We were so proud to celebrate graduate student Jillian Rastinejad (Jill Rastinejad) at her official induction as a Northwestern Presidential Fellow. Her research on origins of r-process clearly resonates across disciplines, and we are thankful to witness it! 📸: B. Robinson

Always grateful for the incredible support from the Fong Group at Northwestern team, both pictured and not pictured!

Congrats, Allison Strom, on being named a Packard Fellow Packard Foundation for her innovative research on the role massive stars in early universe play in shaping the evolution of galaxies!

I had so much fun doing this interview with brendan o'brien ! astrophiz.com/2024/10/15/ast…

I can’t in good faith stay on this app any longer. Not that I’ve used it much in the past year or so anyways. I’m on 🦋 under @ GenevieveSchroeder
