Research Interests

I am currently working on the following two projects:

My project with Marla Geha involves studying the relationship between local environment and global properties of gas-rich dwarf galaxies.  Our goal is to quantify the influence of external mechanisms on the gas content and evolution of these dwarf systems using HI synthesis mapping.

 

My project with Daisuke Nagai is to study the effects of turbulence in galaxy cluster formation.
