| Your personal background. | |
| I am a physicist, currently working for the LIGO laboratory. I was part of the team that helped set up Einstein@Home. As preparation for Einstein@Home I set up the Pirates@Home project, and I continue to use it to test new ideas related to the BOINC software. Most recently I've been working on the "Starboard!" series of applications, which make a wide range of screensavers from the xscreensaver suite available for use with BOINC. I have also created a suite of example BOINC applications which I hope make it easier for new BOINC projects to get started. Now I am working on a (somewhat) unrelated project to make LIGO environmental data available to high school students and teachers for curiosity-driven investigations called "e-Labs". We have borrowed a somewhat modified version of the BOINC discussion forums for use as an on-line logbook (similar to LIGO's iLog), and I have recently succeeded in mating MediaWiki to the BOINC forums for use as a glossary. At the same time I am developing a web-based tool to access and analyze data from LIGO sensors such as seismometers, weather stations, and magnetometers. Last year I taught physics labs at SUNY New Paltz. This year I am doing the same at Marist College. | |
