James Jackman is a PhD student in the Astronomy and Astrophysics group at the University of Warwick, currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at Arizona State University. His research focuses on stellar flares, particularly explosive magnetic reconnection events that occur in stars similar to the Sun. Jackman's work includes the analysis of data from the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) to identify and calculate parameters of stellar events that might illuminate the conditions for exoplanets in orbit around these stars. He has contributed significantly to the NGTS reference catalogue pipeline, particularly in cross-matching NGTS source positions with external catalogues such as Gaia and 2MASS. His research has been highlighted in various national and international media outlets, and he has presented his findings at numerous conferences, including the 51st ESLAB Symposium and the Astrobiology Society of Britain Conference.
