I'm Adina. I'm an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Michigan State University. My research aims to understand the interaction between baby stars and planets! In particular, I am using X-ray, UV, optical, and infrared observations of young stars and their planets to understand how planets evolve.
