This virtual team collects all independent research presented in 2015, and done by NITARP or Spitzer alumni with (or without) students outside of a formal NITARP team.
For me as an educator, it was really rejuvenating to come out here (and bring a student with) and dive into actual astronomical research.
Always impresses me how well a ‘kid’ can perform if supported and presented with a challenge that interests them.
Our students, over the past few years since I participated in NITARP, have directly benefited from my being accepted into the program. You are a great asset and I appreciate all that you do!
