Ryan James Turner

PhD Candidate in Astrophysics, Swinburne University of Technology

I am a cosmologist at the Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Victoria.

I've been a curious person for as long as I can remember, and this natural curiosity drew me towards the big unknowns of the Universe that surrounds us.

As a PhD candidate, my work involves investigating gravity and the growth of the large scale structure in the Universe, with the help of galaxy velocities and positions.

As a Masters student prior to this, I searched for extremely faint galaxies in large amounts of optical data at the University of Western Australia node of ICRAR.
