Liam D. Connor
I am an astrophysicist and radio astronomer. I spend a lot of my time thinking about Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), a mysterious new class of cosmological transients. I also develop large radio telescopes and build tools at the intersection of AI and astronomy. I have recently started as Assistant Professor of Astronomy at Harvard University. I'm actively recruiting students, postdocs, and RF engineers, so do reach out!
Prior to Harvard I worked at the California Institute of Technology (2020-2024), where I was a Tolman Prize Fellow and then research faculty. Before that, I was at the University of Amsterdam / ASTRON. I attended McGill University for undergrad and obtained my Ph.D. from the University of Toronto with Profs. Ue-Li Pen and Keith Vanderlinde.
