Research Fellow, Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics, Australian National University
I am an astronomer at the Australian National University's Mt. Stromlo Observatory. I am working on the SkyMapper Observatory, an automated, rapid survey telescope designed to conduct the Southern Sky Survey
I conduct research on pulsating stars (namely Cepheids and RR Lyraes), stellar evolution, galactic structure and the search for extremely metal-poor stars, the first stars to have formed in the Universe.
SkyMapper PhDs
Now is a perfect time to get involved with SkyMapper.
We have a broad range of potential SkyMapper-based PhD topics, ranging from the solar system to the edge of the optically observable universe!
