Jason Kalirai, an associate astronomer at Space Telescope Science Institute, will give a talk titled "Stellar Astrophysics: 100 Years after Russell" at 11 a.m. on Thursday, January 19, 2017, in the Greenewalt Lecture Hall as part of DTM's Weekly Seminar Series.
Kalirai received his Ph.D. in astrophysics from the University of British Columbia in 2004. He studies the formation and evolution of stars and galaxies in the local universe. His current research interests involve imaging and spectroscopic observations of resolved stellar populations, such as nearby star clusters and dwarf galaxies.
Coffee, tea, and a continental breakfast will be served before the lecture at 10:30 a.m.
