Yuan Li 李远

Astronomy PhD student · Texas A&M University

I study galaxies with ALMA and JWST data, bringing radio observations together with optical and near-infrared views to understand galaxy evolution. Different wavelengths show different aspects of the same galaxy; my current research explores how to use those views together. I also enjoy photography and image processing, and the connection they offer between amateur and professional astronomy.

The sky through my camera

Milky Way fields, meteors and the Tiangong track. Away from research, I also photograph the sky and work on the images.
