I am a NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellow at NASA Ames Research Center. I study microbiology of extreme environments, particularly deserts and radioactive mines, looking for radiation-resistant microorganisms.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
The project SETI is a genuine scientific endeavor that may one day provide answers for the most profound questions of human kind. SETI@home is a demonstration of how much we want to see those questions answered.
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
