Self portrait of Aman at the South Pole


I'm a radio astronomer at McGill and the Trottier Space Institute studying the origin of the first light in our Universe. Using telescopes such as the Murichison Widefield Array and the upcoming Square Kilometer Array I search for these primordial signals. I work on interferometry, calibration, and instrumental and environmental systematics, alongside the development of open-source tools for data analysis and simulation. I've spent over a year at the South Pole, and have recently been involved with the ALBATROS telescope near the magnetic North Pole ✨

I’m interested in data visualisation, scientific software, and astrophotography, and am currently learning Rust and French. Reach out to collaborate or chat!
