I am a 1st year PhD student studying at Curtin University. My research involves searching for pulsars with the Murchison Widefield Array.

NASA Space Apps Challenge Team 2: The Flat Moon Society made a moonquake map so we can make best decisions about locating moon infrastructure. @SpaceApps #spaceapps

Was a thrill to have @SpaceNick on the show. He used the @mwatelescope to find a #Pulsar!

I've just converted my first pipeline to #Nextflow after a week of training @PawseyCentre. I wish I new about this earlier as I've tried to write many of the features that Nextflow takes care of for you! If I didn't have a paper to write I'd keep converting everything to Nextflow

Talk about having your finger on the pulsar. Astronomers using our ASKAP telescope ‘accidentally’ discovered a blast of radio waves from outer space.

I went to Narrabri Radio School last week and got to stand on the 22m dish! It was surreal and being able to see each part of the telescope as it was being explained really helped my understanding.
