Research Interests: I am returning to UW - Madison to earn an Astronomy PhD, after initially earning a BS Chemical Engineering degree many years ago. I am working with Professor Vanderburg on Exoplanet research, initially searching for hot Jupiter planets orbiting white dwarf stars.
Davis, Julie | Graduate Student
.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) | Ph: | Office: 4504 Chamberlin
Research Interests: I'm interested in extragalactic astronomy and in particular the gaseous environments around galaxies. I'm part of the CHILES radio survey on the Very Large Array, investigating extragalactic neutral hydrogen and using other multi-wavelength observations to construct a more complete picture of how gas cycles through galaxies.

Ilan, Teva | Graduate Student
.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) | Ph: | Office: 4520 Sterling Hall
Research Interests: My interests lie mainly in galaxy formation, supermassive black hole formation, the relationship between these processes, and cosmology.

Jones, Logan | Graduate Student
.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) | Ph: | Office: 5510 Sterling Hall
Research Interests: I use multi-wavelength observations to learn about star-forming galaxies at high redshift. Some questions I hope to (help) answer include 1) How did the Universe reionize itself?; and 2) What can extremely dusty galaxies tell us about star formation and galaxy evolution across cosmic time?

Research Interests: I am interested in learning about the relationship between galaxies and their environments. I work with Eric Wilcots, using AGN with bent radio jets in galaxy groups to learn about the gas that exists in these environments. I'm also passionate about education and making academia more equitable.
