I seem to boost far more than I post. I should do something about that.
Astronomer/IT staff at Perimeter Institute. Farm-raised left-handed vegetarian Canadian socialist & dad-joke appreciator.
I work on big sky surveys in the optical and radio. Currently busy with the DESI survey which is taking tens of millions of galaxy spectra; and CHIME & CHORD, groundbreaking Canadian radio-astronomy experiments. I like making our data publicly available; you can browse the imaging survey we did for DESI here:
