A photo of our team from our annual meeting at CIERA. We looked back over four(!) years of the project and discussed potential plans for the future

Newest paper w/ ✨ Dr Mayoress Isobel Romero-Shaw ✨, Kyle Kremer, Eric Thrane, & Paul Lasky where we investigate selection effects for eccentric black hole mergers & the implications that an eccentric detection (or lack thereof) has on the fraction of mergers coming from clusters! arxiv.org/abs/2106.09042

Introducing Pizzicato, a new glitch class identified by our The Zooniverse volunteers! We think this glitch is due to the violin modes of the LIGO detectors' mirror suspensions, but the exact cause has yet to be identified blog.gravityspy.org/2021/07/15/new… #CommunityScience

Exciting to be on ABC 7 Chicago this morning and having a chat with Tracy Butler about one of the best meteor showers of the year…bundle up and find some dark skies tonight to catch the Geminids! abc7chicago.com/14176583/

New paper on arXiv today! With Alex and Mike (Michael Zevin), we: 1. Show that the definition of orbital eccentricity used in astrophysics simulations differs from that in waveform models. 2. Outline a procedure to ensure consistency! arxiv.org/abs/2402.07892 (1/3)

I led the team of LIGO-EGO & the Virgo Collaboration-Kagra scientists working on the analysis and paper writing of this event with Michael Zevin. Check out his talk @APSMeetings at 1:30PM PDT today for more details, or read on for the highlights! 2/7
