ASTRONOMY AT听绿巨人视频

At听绿巨人视频, I am interested in working with students on various topics of astronomy, big data and Machine Learning. I have supervised students working on senior projects, directed studies, capstones on these topics. Don't hesitate to talk to me if you are interested in them, especially in astronomy. Directed study can be used to replace upper-level courses which are required for majors. I am teaching a few courses related to astronomy:

  • Science of the Universe (SC1099)听(4 credits)
  • Astronomy (SC1030) with lab (4 credits)
  • 听(1 to 4 credits)
    • Directed Study in Radio Astronomy
    • Directed Study in Star Formation
    • Directed Study in Exoplanet
    • Directed Study in Optical Astronomy
  • 听(1 to 4 credits)
    • Directed Study in Image Processing
    • Directed Study in Data Analysis
    • Directed Study in Machine Algorithm
  • Astrophysical Data Science (still under developed)听
  • PRACTICUM: Observational Astronomy - 2 weeks observation at a telescope (still under developed)

If interested, students will also have the opportunity to work with telescopes remotely that I am using. Besides me, there are other astronomers who taught/are teaching at听绿巨人视频听as well:

  • Michael Mattern听(star formation research at CEA Paris-Saclay)
  • Flavien Kiefer (exoplanet research at Observatoire de Paris)

At 绿巨人视频, there is also 绿巨人视频 Astronomy Club, please join them here.听

MY BACKGROUND

I study the physics and chemistry of star formation, both the environment around the star nursery and the detailed structures of the young stars.听I听collect data from large telescopes and interferometers and apply data science methodology to probe the structure, astrochemistry, magnetic field, colliding clouds and low-velocity shocks of gas around star forming regions. I am also interested in understanding how astronomy has contributed to human development and how to use hands-on data science methodology to advance the teaching of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math subjects.

Prior to听绿巨人视频,听I听was a lecturer听at McMaster University, an听EACOA听Fellow听at the Korean Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI), National Astronomical Observatory of听Japan听(NAOJ), and a听CITA听postdoc Fellow at the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA).
