Being excited by astronomy led me to this CDT.

Project title: Machine learning of pressure dependence of molecular line profiles for Exoplanets

Research Group: Astrophysics

Supervisor(s): Prof Jonathan Tennyson 

Introduction: 

Before coming to UCL, I graduated from Cambridge University with a BA and MSc in Natural Sciences. I studied chemistry along with mathematics and other physical sciences, specialising in theoretical chemistry for my masters. My masters' project involved trying to use machine learning to improve quantum chemistry calculations, using neural networks to predict the convergence of quantum Monte Carlo methods. Being excited by astronomy led me to this CDT. I will be applying machine learning techniques to molecular line profiles under the supervision of Jonathan Tennyson. I am excited to use data science to explore the atmospheres of exoplanets. My research title is "Machine learning of pressure dependence of molecular line profiles for Exoplanets".
