Beth Biller

Beth Biller is a Professor at The University of Edinburgh, affiliated with the School of Physics and Astronomy and the Institute for Astronomy. Her research focuses on direct imaging detection and characterization of extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs, with an emphasis on statistical analysis of large-scale planet surveys and techniques to monitor cloud patterns on brown dwarfs and exoplanets through photometric variability. She is also involved in current observational efforts and the development of future instruments, including the SPHERE planet-finder at the VLT, the Near-IR Coronagraphic Imager (NICI) at Gemini-South, and the LEECH survey using LMIRCam at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT).

Beth Biller is a researcher at the University of Edinburgh specializing in exoplanet characterization and direct imaging of exoplanets. Her work focuses on detecting and analyzing exoplanets using advanced imaging techniques, particularly in young stellar systems. Biller's research includes the discovery of giant exoplanets around Sun-like stars and the study of brown dwarfs and low-mass stars. Her publications explore the demographics of young giant exoplanets, the formation of planetary systems, and the characterization of atmospheric properties of exoplanets. She has contributed to several large-scale observational campaigns, including the Gemini/NICI Planet-Finding Campaign and the VLT/SPHERE program, which aim to understand the formation and evolution of planetary systems.
