Cluster Science Team Leader
The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury survey is a 4-year survey of the Andromeda galaxy with the Hubble Telescope. I'm leader of the 20-person international team of researchers focusing on star cluster science in this survey. I organize sessions at our yearly team meeting and regular phone conferences. I also am the primary advisor for graduate student Cliff Johnson at U. of Washington.
