We're wrapping up Day 2 of #AAS238 with a plenary talk by Marla Geha about the "nieces, nephews, and niblings" of the Milky Way: low-mass satellite galaxies around Milky Way-like galaxies!

A week ago @zosiakrusberg and I helped run the first UChicago Warrior-Scholar Program STEM bootcamp week. The students, all of them active-duty service members or veterans, were amazing and inspiring. I can’t wait to see what they accomplish next. warrior-scholar.org

I am excited for this course and looking forward to learning alot.

eXtending the SAGA survey with machine learning. Congrats John F. Wu

Want to know more about the core/cusp problem? Josh Simon and I reviewed dark matter constraints from low mass galaxies for Physics Today. This field has some, er, history. Especially good for students entering the field: doi.org/10.1063/PT.3.4…

Perfect article to read in a cozy coffee shop while thinking about new questions and projects related to ultra-faint galaxies. Nice work Dr. Burcin Mutlu-Pakdil and Denija Crnojevic

Paper day! Juan Guerra developed a beautiful method to predict errors on the density profiles of resolved stellar systems. This project started while thinking about what science questions will (and will not) be answered by next generation telescopes. Louis Strigari

Know this equation? Celebrating Juan Guerra's first paper with Eq 1 in arxiv.org/abs/2112.05166

It’s not every day that you get to speak with one of the country’s leading astrophysicists! The Rubicon team was given such an opportunity when Nate Morris interviewed Professor Marla Geha, Yale astrophysicist and Rubicon Clear Constellation competition judge. 🔭 rubicon.com/blog/nate-morr…

Do you know a student-veteran? Come do summer research at Yale University The deadline for the Research Experience for Veteran Undergrads (REVU) program is Feb 21st. Warrior-Scholar Project Please spread the word: revuprogram.com/apply

A good read by Imad Pasha on explicitly including coding as part of the Astrophysics undergraduate curriculum and some lessons learned.

Thank you Richard Easther for highlighting this influential work. One of the first papers I read as a student: astronomy.yale.edu/news/evolution…

We are thrilled to share that MacKenzie Scott has chosen Warrior-Scholar Project as a beneficiary in her latest round of grantmaking. We have received a $5 million, unrestricted gift from this incredibly generous donor. bit.ly/36gVz05

The very first science data taken with #JWST were images of the globular cluster M92. There's a lot of exciting science we can (& will!) do with these images, but they also provide a great opportunity to test the calibration of the NIRCam instrument: arxiv.org/abs/2209.03348 [1/]
