My first Ph.D. letter with the title of “PHANGS-JWST First Results: The 21 μm Compact Source Population” is out! We used NASA Webb Telescope telescope observations in 4 galaxies (NGC628, NGC1365, NGC7496, NGC1365) to inspect what we do see in galaxies at 21 μm? arxiv.org/abs/2212.01526

And tonight in The PHANGS team early science - the survey paper led by Dr Janice Lee! Lots of detail on the data, reduction, science goals & more! arxiv.org/abs/2212.02667 - also featuring images from Judy Schmidt!

1/ 🆕 Webb reveals intricate networks of gas and dust in nearby galaxies, as researchers look at how the beginnings of star formation impact the evolution of the largest objects in our cosmos: galaxies. Full story: esawebb.org/news/weic2306/ Details 👇

Feel like you’re spiraling? You’re in good company! Webb’s images of NGC 1365 (left), NGC 7496 (top) & NGC 1433 (bottom) reveal the galaxies' networks of gas and dust in incredible detail. The data is part of an ongoing Webb survey of 19 spiral galaxies: go.nasa.gov/3YzvAXj

Our annual team meeting started on Tuesday this week 🌌🌟 this year in Pasadena at Carnegie Observatories Carnegie Astronomy

Stunning to see PHANGS galaxies on this big screen 😱 today is the last day of our team meeting in Pasadena Carnegie Astronomy

I'm doing my first round of visits in the US at the Ohio State University (Ohio State), and I will give a talk on the PHANGS-AstroSat UV observations of nearby star-forming galaxies!

Hey hey today is paper day✨ My latest paper is on arXiv today! Check it out here 🔍: arxiv.org/abs/2304.02037 "𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫-𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐇𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐛𝐲 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐱𝐲 𝐌𝟖𝟑" [a thread]

Excited to share that my latest paper was accepted to ApJ (arxiv.org/abs/2304.04732)! 🥳 We present new evidence for low CO-to-H2 conversion factors (α_CO) in nearby barred galaxy centers. We also identify the physical drivers & observational tracers for such α_CO variations. 🧵

I just wanted to share this exciting news that the proposal led by Adam Leory and The PHANGS team for JWST cycle 2 has been accepted to observe 55 galaxies with a allocation time of 150 hours! Meanwhile, under the cycle 1 proposal by Dr Janice Lee, NASA Webb Telescope observed NGC 2835:
