| I am a researcher at Uppsala University.
Before that, I was a postdoc here (Dec 2019 -- Apr 2021),
and before that a postdoc at MPIA, Germany
(Dec 2016 -- Nov 2019).
Earlier, I was a PhD student at Mount Stromlo Observatory,
Australia (2013 -- 2016), and a BA/MSci student at the
University of Cambridge, UK (2009 -- 2013). | ||||||||||
| I work on making accurate models of the light that emerges from stars like the Sun. By comparing these models against real observations of stars, it is possible to infer essential properties of the stars --- in particular, their chemical compositions. To a good approximation, the present-day chemical compositions of Sun-like stars reflect the compositions of the gas from which the stars formed at their respective times of birth. Thus, by studying stars of different ages and different orbits in this manner, it is also possible to learn about the history and evolution of our Galaxy and the cosmos. | ||||||||||
