The overall long-term objectives of my research program are to establish the prevalence and diversity of planetary systems in our galaxy, to understand how these systems form and evolve, to comprehend the physics involved in the atmosphere and interior of planets, and ultimately, to detect traces of life elsewhere in the universe. Over the next few years, I will focus on making observations to detect and characterize new planets in yet unexplored regimes of orbital separations, planet masses, star masses, and system ages. The data to be uncovered through this observational work will form the essential basis upon which all formation, evolution, interior and atmosphere models of giant planets and planetary systems will be developed and validated.

我的研究计划的总体长期目标是建立星系中行星系统的普遍性和多样性，以了解这些系统如何形成和发展，以理解行星气氛和内部涉及的物理学，并最终检测到宇宙中其他地方的生命痕迹。在接下来的几年中，我将专注于进行观察，以在轨道分离，行星质量，星质和系统年龄的尚未探索的方案中检测和表征新行星。通过这项观察工作发现的数据将构成基本的基础，这些基础将开发和验证巨型行星和行星系统的所有形成，进化，内部和大气模型。
