Meet the ASPIRE team
We are a diverse team of astronomers who come from all over the world. ASPIRE includes professors, research scientists, postdocs, and graduate students who are observational and theoretical experts in quasars, galaxies, reionization, intergalactic medium, circumgalactic medium, large-scale structures, and cosmology.
We are part of the EREBUS (Epoch of Reionization and Early Black holes in the Universe Survey) collaboration which was formed by merging the team members from the JWST ASPIRE program, ALMA ASPIRE program and the other medium-size JWST Cycle 1 program (GO 1764).
