About me

Ph.D. Student at Mullard Space Science Laboratory, UCL.

Hey, I'm Jess, I'm 24, and a 2nd year Ph.D. student researching cosmology - particularly weak gravitational lensing - using deep learning techniques. I predominantly use Python, but am learning other languages such as C and html/css in my free time. I'm interested in further machine learning opportunities, and excitedly await data from Euclid and LSST, as well as the scientific progress that will surely come from them.

Before being based here I did my undergraduate degree at the University of Liverpool, where I studied theoretical physics. My masters research there focused on the geometries of various black hole models, as well as their Hawking radiation.

I am the co-organiser of MSSL Space Science Week, a yearly summer school for 16-17 year olds, where they get the opportunity to see what it's like to work in a real space laboratory - both from an engineering and theoretical perspective.

I love hearing from people, so if you're interested in what I do, have any questions, or would like to collaborate, please do get in touch! The button on the top right has my contact details.
