About

Danielle Frostig is an incoming NSF AAPF/CfA postdoctoral fellow. She is joining the CfA from down the street at MIT where she recently completed her PhD, focusing on infrared instrumentation and time-domain astronomy. Danielle is the instrument scientist and one of the main builders of WINTER, a new near-infrared time-domain survey facility at Palomar Observatory. As part of her postdoctoral research, Danielle will continue to run science programs with WINTER, along with working on broader time-domain science and next-generation instruments. Danielle has also worked on the upcoming Magellan spectrograph, LLAMAS, and worked with the GMT AGWS team on an alignment prototype as an undergrad at Harvard.
