Emmavolkers

Developed enhanced Bayesian statistics teaching materials within the t-kist/Bayesian-Statistics-for-Astrophysics-2024 repository, focusing on consolidating and modernizing instructional resources for exoplanet data analysis. Delivered a new Jupyter Notebook that demonstrates Bayesian methods for exoplanet mass estimation, providing students with practical, hands-on experience. Refactored existing lecture notes on Bayesian priors to improve clarity and applicability, supporting more effective instruction and streamlined onboarding. The work leveraged Python, SciPy, and Matplotlib to create reproducible, interactive content, while version control practices ensured traceability. This effort resulted in a unified, scalable package that standardizes course materials and facilitates the application of Bayesian techniques in astrophysics.
