Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Claire explores the largest structures of the universe and what they reveal about the forces which shape them: gravity and dark energy. She uses the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) to measure correlations involving galaxy shapes, galaxy clustering, and the cosmic web. Her research focuses on developing new methods to detect these correlations with upcoming cosmology surveys. Claire is also an avid science communicator; mostly known for annotating scientific papers, creating a planetarium film, and baking cake.
