Getting Started

🔭 Dr. @yasharakrami.bsky.social ((IFT) UAM- CSIC) joined us for an AURORA Astro Webinar on one of the most fascinating questions in physics: what is the shape of the Universe? Could its topology leave subtle imprints on the cosmic microwave background? 🎥 Watch here: youtu.be/-_6ZEnp4UX8

New AURORA Astro webinar featuring Dr. Irene Shivaei: “Unveiling Dust Beyond the Local Universe with JWST and ALMA” See how dust shapes galaxy evolution from z~0 to z~9– from PAH emissions to attenuation curves. 🎥 Watch here: youtu.be/DB22C4hx65g

We’re happy to invite you to our next AURORA Astro Webinar! Dr. Irene Shivaei from the Centro de Astrobiología (CAB) in Madrid will be giving a talk over Zoom. We hope you can join us! Send us a direct message to get the link, or join us in person in the Pierce Observing Room.

Thinking about teaching after grad school? Check out this great talk by Dr. Christina Manzano King (UCR alum!) on launching a teaching career at community colleges—she covers everything from portfolios to interviews to tenure. Super practical and encouraging. youtu.be/hoHFrfqz61Q
