PHD AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY 1989
EXPERIENCE 30 YEARS
EXPERTISE GALAXIES, STARS, PULSARS AND FAST RADIO BURSTS
DR. Chris Flynn has over 30 years experience working in optical and radio astronomy, with an emphasis on measuring the matter content of the universe. He obtained his PhD in 1989 from Mount Stromlo Observatory at the Australian National University, has worked in Heidelberg Germany, Copenhagen Denmark, in Princeton and Columbus in the US and at the Tuorla Observatory in Finland. During this period he worked primarily with space-based optical observatories, such as Hipparcos,the Hubble Space Telescope, and Gaia. He has been a senior researcher in the Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing at Swinburne University of Technology for the last decade, working on Fast Radio Bursts and pulsars.

EXPERIENCE 30+ YEARS
EXPERTISE PULSARS, GRAVITATIONAL WAVES, FAST RADIO BURSTS
Professor Matthew Bailes is known for his pioneering work on millisecond pulsars and fast radio bursts and is the founder of the A.S.T.R.A.L. program. His PhD on at ANU was awarded the Crawford Prize in 1990, and he won the CSIRO medal for his work that unveiled many of the brightest millisecond pulsars in the Southern hemisphere. He was awarded the Australian Research Council's Endeavour, QEII, Senior and Laureate Fellowships, and has led two successful Centre of Excellence bids on gravitational wave discovery. He is currently the Director of the OzGrav Centre of Excellence. In 1998 he founded the Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing, now one of Australia's major astronomical research centres.
