Research Interests

My research interests centre on the origin and evolution of galaxies and the large scale structure of the universe. As an observational astronomer I take a close interest in the latest developments in astronomical instrumentation. My research takes me to the remote sites of the world's top observatories. I have taken a leading role in planning the Gemini Telescopes which are now operating in Hawaii and Chile.
