Research Interests
My research is aimed at measuring the large-scale structure of the Universe
to put to the test our current understanding of cosmology and help shed
light on outstanding questions like the nature of dark energy. I work on the
Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (
CHIME), a large radio telescope
that we built in British Columbia, Canada, including the world's most
powerful digital radio correlator. CHIME is at the forefront of cosmological
intensity mapping, and has also been extremely successful as a radio
transient detector. I'm interested in participating in the development of
the next generation of instruments and the analysis of the observations that
will survey the Universe to unprecedented depths.
