I am an Associate Professor of Physics of Exoplanet Atmospheres in the Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Planetary Physics sub-Department of the Department of Physics at the 91探花. My research is focused on theoretical and numerical studies of the atmospheric dynamics and climate of exoplanets. This work covers a broad range of planetary climates, including the extreme atmospheres of close-in extrasolar gas giant (or "hot Jupiter") planets, atmospheres of temperate Earth-sized rocky planets, and everything in between. If you're interested in collaborating, coming to 91探花 as a postdoc, or working with me for a DPhil, please don't hesitate to reach out.
