Titanium Physicist: Black Bells with Brent Knopf and Matt Sheehy
|
On the Titanium Physicist, we talk about Einstein's theory of gravity, black holes, how black holes "ring" and how we can detect this with gravitational waves.

Before the Abstract: How I ended up at the center of the universe
|
The story of how I got to the center of the Universe :) Springer Storytellers with Story Collider
Here I tell the story of how I came to work in STEM, and how I almost dropped out due to imposter syndrome and a bad fit with my former Ph. D. supervisor. |

AstroMcGill Podcast: Interview about gravitational waves (21/04/2015)
|
Thank you to the AstroMcGill club for inviting me to talk to them after giving a seminar at the McGill Space Institute. In Episode 68, I talk about how timing the rotation of pulsars can be used to detect gravitational waves---ripples in the very fabric of the cosmos.

Physics Central: Listening for black holes and neutron stars (19/11/2014)
|
Interview by Meg Rosenberg for Physics Central.
Summary: Scientists around the world are trying to catch some waves, some gravitational waves. Find out what these warps in space-time are, the ways to find them and how we could use them to "listen" to the movements of black holes and neutron stars. |

Voice of the Future 2013 (20/03/2013)
On Wednesday 20 March 2013, the Science and Technology Committee hosted a session 'Voice of the Future 2013' which is the Society of Biology’s major contribution this year’s National Science & Engineering Week 2013.
The Society has a duty under its Royal Charter “to serve the public benefit” and it was in that spirit that it co-operated with the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee and with other science organisations to make this event possible.
I was asked to participate in this event as a representative of the Royal Astronomical Society. It was a live televised forum where one could ask MPs questions about policy pertaining to science. My question appears at 11:14:36 in the broadcast, which was posted here

Pulsars Point to Gravitational Waves: Naked Scientist (25/06/2012)
|
Podcast Interview: Here is my interview done at the National Astronomy Meeting 2012 in Manchester, England, for the Naked Scientist. Interview by Ben Valsler. *note, clock corrections are not limiting all pulsar timing precisions _yet_ :)

BBC Radio Interview with Ed Doolan
|
Here I talk about what a PhD student does, and what gravitational waves are. This interview was done during the run up to BBC Stargazing Live 2012.
