Very excited to be chairing my first of two sessions this week tomorrow as part of @nam25-durham.bsky.social

We have an amazing selection of talks about astronomy code development lined up and I hope it'll be a great chance for people to learn and connect!

So exciting to be involved in organising NAM this year and to get to do lots of fun jobs including designing our logo and merchandise!🌌

If you're at NAM make sure to grab your freebies and enjoy trying to match up all the areas of the logo to their astronomy research areas ✨️

Last week at #ISC25 ✨️

Such a joy to present in the Women in HPC Tech Talks and Poster Session and discuss my work with so many people!

I am very grateful to have been a WHPC Travel Fellow for this year's conference and hope to attend more HPC events in the future!

I gave a talk this week as part of the Durham HPC Days 2025!

I discussed my work on GPU offloading and how astronomy fits in with the HPC landscape. It was great to meet so many experts and have such interesting discussions about the future of HPC!
