Excited to be heading over to Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) next week to talk about foundation models for astrophysics! #AI4Astro UoM Institute for Data Science & AI UoM Physics & Astronomy The Alan Turing Institute

I’m excited to be chairing this discussion on #AI4Science next week at the EU Science & Innovation 🇪🇺 R&I Days. Are you a scientist using AI? Feel free to ping me with your thoughts! #shapethedebate The Alan Turing Institute Horizon Europe 🇪🇺 UKRI UoM Institute for Data Science & AI Policy@Manchester ELLIS

Congratulations to DARA Project and Jodrell Bank UoM Physics & Astronomy alumna Dr Ann Njeri (Dr. Njeri) on being awarded a 2024 Fondation L'Oréal UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳 #ForWomenInScience award! 🎉✨💫 📡 bit.ly/491xZhZ SKA Observatory NRF/SARAO Newton Fund UoM Science and Engineering

Had a great time at the #RIDaysEU yesterday talking about #AI4Science with Emanuela Girardi Adra | The AI, Data and Robotics Association & Pushmeet Kohli Google DeepMind - a clear message that collaboration is key to success! EU Science & Innovation 🇪🇺 European Research Council (ERC) The Alan Turing Institute The University of Manchester UKRI

Heading down to Wellcome London for the kickoff of the new Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council #ProbAI Hub ✨ I’ll be talking about Bayesian deep-learning for Astro - highlighting recent work by Devina Mohan UoM Physics & Astronomy on detecting distributional shift with different Bayesian approximations

It is excellent to see European research being reinforced like this - and especially to see the connections between innovation and fundamental research being recognised. European Research Council (ERC) has been instrumental in supporting my research and the research of many other scientists 🙏

In Amsterdam for the kickoff of the European Coalition on AI for Fundamental Physics #EuCAIF. Catch me later today at the plenary panel on Directions in AI and Fundamental Physics European Research Council (ERC) The Alan Turing Institute UoM Institute for Data Science & AI UoM Physics & Astronomy #eucaifcon24

Had my first ever visit to Parkes this week for the CSIRO_ATNF steering committee meeting - and got a hayride on the telescope! 📡

Great news for radio astronomy in Africa: the DARA Project & DARA Big Data have secured a major funding boost to train 225 more students in the field over the next three years, across eight SKAO African partner countries. Read more in our magazine ⤵️ loom.ly/hKQq0UA

Congratulations to ⁦Micah Bowles⁩ for passing his #AI4Astro PhD viva today ⁦UoM Physics & Astronomy⁩! 🥂✨and many thanks to his examiners ⁦@[email protected]⁩ & ⁦Rebecca Bowler⁩ 🙏 ⁦The Alan Turing Institute⁩ ⁦UoM Institute for Data Science & AI⁩

nature.com/articles/d4158… As academics navigating travel with caring responsibilities, I and #UKRIFLFs Laura Pallett Prof. Laura Carter are calling for accelerated change by sharing insights into the many challenges - highlighting personal experiences and proposing strategy for institutions

Good morning Dublin. Very sorry I’m not stopping ☹️

Our #UAI2024 paper, led by Devina Mohan , is on arXiv! How different Bayesian approximations in deep-learning perform for galaxy classification cf. an HMC baseline. [model performance, uncertainty calibration, dataset shift detection] arxiv.org/abs/2405.18351 UAI 2025

Heading down to The Royal Society today for the annual URSI UK Board meeting. If you are part of the URSI community in the UK and interested in participating in the newly reformed Women in Radio Science #WiRS chapter then please get in touch! usnc-ursi-archive.org/WIRS.html

In London today for the The Royal Society National Academy of Sciences #USUKForum on #AI4Science

In our new paper on arXiv.org today we look at the potential for using directly extracted E2-equivariant features for the classification of radio galaxies as an alternative to group-equivariant CNNs 💻📡 Great work led by Natalie Lines & Joan Font-Quer! ✨ arxiv.org/abs/2406.09024

MPhys (final year) research projects are one of my favourite things about the UoM Physics & Astronomy undergrad degree. I find them a lot of fun - and it’s really nice to hear that the students also enjoy them! 🙏✨

The Radio Galaxy Zoo: EMU is going live! Help us link radio sources to their parent galaxies and classify them with simple descriptive tags. Discover exciting and unknown objects waiting to be found. Can't wait to hear about your discoveries!
