PyData: From New York to London
I have been using the Python data ecosystem (consisting of NumPy, Matplotlib, Pandas, and many more) for a few years now, so I was really glad to be able to attend the conference dedicated to all things Python data related, PyData, in its latest incarnation in New York last November.
PyData has been running roughly three times a year since 2012 when the first event was held in the Google Campus in Mountain View.

Outreach lecture to teachers
I gave a lecture to secondary school teachers this week as part of the Goldsmith’s Company’s Science for Society Course on astrophysics.
Having heard about the Big Bang model and some of its problems from my colleague Dr David Mulryne, I was given the task of outlining how the inflationary paradigm tries to solve these problems and some of the reasons we think it is a good model of the early universe.

Cosmo09 roundup
The Cosmo09 conference took place last week in the picturesque surroundings of CERN with lots of talks, a lot of conversation and not a little French/Swiss beer. Videos of the plenary talks are now available and the slides of every talk (including the parallel sessions) are listed in the conference programme for each session. There are a few personal notes on the sessions in the FriendFeed group.
My talk was on Thursday afternoon in the inflation session.
