Prof. Gautham Narayan and the SCIMMA team (@NCSAatIllinois,@LCO_Global, @penn_state, @Cornell and @UCSB) have received a $3.5M grant from the @NSF to develop the next-gen communications and computational infrastructure for time-domain & MMA! #NSFfunded
NCSAatIllinois@NCSAatIllinois

@NSF awarded $3.5M to NCSA and #SCIMMA to help better connect worldwide research groups working on multi-messenger astrophysics. This effort will allow them to communicate messages more rapidly, robustly, and in a way that both humans & machines can read. go.ncsa.illinois.edu/news-062023

Astronomy Illinois grad student, Melanie Archipley, does cool work. Very literally. Some pictures from her time at the South Pole working with Prof. Joaquin Vieira's group as a Center for AstroPhysical Surveys fellow.
NCSAatIllinois@NCSAatIllinois

For years, Melanie Archipley has worked with data from the #SouthPoleTelescope to enrich her astronomy research. As an NCSA CAPS Fellow, she received an opportunity of a lifetime – a trip to #Antarctica to work with the SPT in person. Read about her trip: go.ncsa.illinois.edu/news-052323

New Paper Day! arxiv.org/abs/2304.10419 I'm especially happy to see this one out in the world both scientifically (an idea I've been trying to implement for a long time) and because it involves contributions from my new research group at UIUC!
