Radio astronomer at the Uni of Edinburgh. Has a moustache.
The whole book is _only_ $3000 USD... oof. The one chapter itself is a ~100th of that in cost, but you can read the preprint version (which doesn't weirdly add a hyphen to the title!) for free :v arxiv.org/abs/2410.24072

Important educational lessons at the #PHISCC neutral hydrogen conference in Sardinia

After two talks, discussion sessions, and safaris at a conference, now in Cape Town for catching up with friends and some collab work next week (besides grant writing/responding to ref report...)

Made a friend this evening too!

Very rude guests interrupted someone's conference talk today. They should have read the code of conduct! #HungryHIppos #Kruger

Treated #NAM2025 to a musical, rhyming 1-min sparkler talk this morning >:] Thanks to a particular tune from The Sound of Music...

This morning I gave a 1 min sparkler talk about a poster on FRBs and scattering correlations with host galaxy properties at #NAM2025 in Durham in person.

This evening I gave a talk over telecon at #FRB2025 about a new repeating FRB discovery.

That's right dual conferencing baybeeee

I've been part of a large collaborative effort, featuring a bunch of CRAFT survey people, behind this discovery! A long-period radio transient (LPT - rare objects) detected in X-ray, the first for an LPT!

Gave a seminar at St Andrews yesterday! Talked on a mix of FRB, HI with MeerKAT, and simulation work. Was a nice town to walk through after the work day was done too (helped the weather was nigh perfect).

If I had a nickel for every time I saw a fire near a uni building I worked at, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?

(This one was fine, unless you're small patches of vegetation. But not something I expected to see in Scotland! Thanks firefighters.)

Watching the stream from the other side of the world. What a swing from 3 months ago #aus

Some good talks at the International Women's Day event held today at work. Involved some personal stories as well.

Met a new friend during the walk home from work today

New paper! Led by Ziteng 'Andy' Wang, I was part of a team that helped commission a new system for detecting fast radio transients. Looking forward to all the stuff ASKAP finds with CRACO!
