Cosmo09 conference

By Ian | Published: September 1, 2009

The annual Cosmo conference for all branches of cosmology is taking place next week 7th-11th September in CERN. I will be attending and giving a talk in the inflation session on Thursday afternoon.

After last week’s Science Online London 2009 conference which I attended, I have been thinking about how to get fellow cosmologists to start interacting online. I am not sure whether anyone else will use it but I have started using the hashtag #cosmo09 on twitter and have created a FriendFeed room for the conference. There might not be much activity, but if people do want to use these tools, at least they will have somewhere to start.

I am a theoretical cosmologist at Queen Mary, University of London. My work focuses on the early universe and in particular inflationary models.
More info and my CV

My recent work has included creating numerical simulations of cosmological perturbations during inflation. My code, called Pyflation, is open source and available for download.
