Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAaron Robotham is a professional astronomer and Future Fellow at ICRAR in Perth with 13 years' experience specializing in data analysis, statistics and image processing for large surveys. He combines observational and simulation work, often coding in R to extract robust science from complex datasets. Trained with an MSci in Astrophysics from the University of Bristol, Aaron focuses on survey-scale problems but deliberately dabbles across subfields to cross-pollinate techniques. Colleagues rely on him for rigorous statistical approaches to imaging challenges and for turning messy survey outputs into reproducible results. Quietly, he couples academic curiosity with practical tooling—bridging research-grade methods and usable analysis workflows for the radio astronomy community.
