Research poster: mapping a star-forming region in 3D with Gaia astrometric data

Below is my research poster, summarising my six week project which attempted to find and map star clusters and associations. For more detail, feel free to take a look at my research essay (linked below the poster)!

Research essay: mapping a star-forming region in 3D with Gaia astrometric data

This project uses telescope data to map a star-forming region near the constellation Monoceros, in an attempt to identify new star clusters and associations. For a quick summary of my research, feel free to take a look at my poster (linked below the essay)!

Hello! I'm from Edinburgh, and am currently an Actuarial Trainee at Hymans Robertson. Prior to that, I studied Astrophysics at the University of St Andrews, where I was particularly interested in computational aspects of the field (handling and analysing observational data, and simulations). Away from academics, I enjoy playing a variety of sports, exploring the Scottish hills, and am a keen musician.

My research project in summer 2023 focused on mapping a region of the sky known to be star-forming, around the Monoceros constellation, with the hope of using analytical techniques to attempt to find new star clusters.

My LiA in summer 2024 was with the Timothy Smith Network in Boston, Massachusetts, teaching coding and microelectronics as part of the Elevating Agriculture Technology (EAT) course.
