Mining current optical and infrared databases to find variable active galactic nuclei.
This experience has completely changed my once shallow view of astronomy and astronomers.
Everything [at the 2013 AAS] was new. The interesting piece was attending a press briefing and then comparing that to the scientist version.
I LOVED the chance to talk with some of the students that have been involved in the NITARP program. It was really good to hear of their insights and thoughts about the program, the process, and how it influenced their year and future plans.
