Well hello there, I'm Louis! 👋

I'm a PhD Candidate in Astronomy at The University of Sydney working with my supervisors Peter Tuthill and Benjamin Pope.

My research is focused around advancing the way we approach modelling optical systems, aiming to integrate the huge advancements in Machine Learning of the last decade into optical sciences through the use of Automatic Differentiation. I aim to develop new softwares, tools and methods that harness these ideas in order to advance the field as a whole, as well as applying these ideas to the Toliman Space Telescope and JWST.

Please don't hesitate to contact me about project collaboration at louis.desdoigts@sydney.edu.au!

Software:

I'm deeply passionate about open-source software and its ability to precipitate multi-disciplinary scientific advancement. Presently I am leading the development of two packages:
  • ∂Lux: An open-source, fully differentiable, GPU accelerated optical modelling framework.
  • Zodiax: An open-source framework for object-oriented Jax as an extension of Equinox for scientific application.
