Science - Evolution of Galaxies: People: Roberto Assef

WISE
Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) is a four-channel, super-cooled infrared telescope designed to survey the entire sky with 1,000 times more sensitivity than previous infrared missions.

NuSTAR
NuSTAR, launched in June 2012, is a pathfinder mission that has opened the high energy X-ray sky to sensitive study for the first time.

NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellow, Jet Propulsion Laboratory (2010 - present)

Recipient of the "Presidential Fellowship", The Ohio State University (2009)
