Mining current optical and infrared databases to find variable active galactic nuclei.
[NITARP] is a fabulous experience ā I feel like after several years I am understanding more of the talks, able to engage in a real conversation with astronomers, ask questions one on one, interpret more on posters ā just feel more astronomically literate.
I did not anticipate how exhausted Iād get [at my first AAS meeting].
This week at Caltech was the greatest opportunity of my career. It was an experience that was humbling and at the same time gave me confidence. I cannot thank the NITARP program enough for the professional development, the professional relationships I've grown, and the inspiration. Thank you NITARP! Please keep this educational program going.
