Hi! I am Matthew, an astronomy graduate student and PhD candidate at Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona.
If you want to contact me, feel free to email me at mmmurphy@arizona.edu
I study exoplanets and their atmospheres through a variety of observational techniques. I’m interested in the composition and dynamics of exoplanet atmospheres, and building maps of the global properties of the atmosphere using the James Webb Space Telescope. I am also interested in habitability, both inside and outside the Solar System, and work on exo-habitability as a member of the NASA Nexus for Exoplanet System Science.
In addition to my research, I enjoy popular science and scientific outreach through both speaking and writing in the media. I believe in supporting and inspiring young scientists.
