RASC Hamilton Centre is thrilled to host Dr. Jesse Rogerson

A passionate scientist, educator and communicator, Jesse Rogerson is an Assistant Professor at York University. His PhD research examined quasars – super massive black holes in the centres of distant galaxies. From telescopes around the world, he monitored black holes for changes over short and long periods of time and was able to show the quasar winds change on large and small-time scales, and that predicting their behaviour was not possible. Jesse has worked in three of Canada’s preeminent science museums including the Canada Aviation and Space Museum wherein he engaged a variety of audiences from around the world with astronomy, planetary science and other space sciences.
