His work focuses on \u201cintrinsic statistical properties of galaxy populations,\u201d as his website states, as well as \u201cthe physics of galaxy formation and evolution.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The process of obtaining a Ph.D. is a long and arduous one, with years of hard work, research, and dedication. Stone is clearly no stranger to this journey; he completed a four-year undergraduate program, earning a B.Sc. from the University of Waterloo, and a two-year Master&#8217;s program, earning a M.Sc. from Queen\u2019s University, before moving on to his four-year Ph.D. program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While studying for his Ph.D., Stone created a code called \u201cAutoProf\u201d which he started working on in 2020 and released in the summer of 2021. The code analyzes pictures of galaxies in order to gather information on the various characteristics of those galaxies and is able to extract information such as the total population, light, size, and colour of a galaxy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of relations that exist between these parameters,\u201d Stone says. \u201cYou can imagine that a bigger galaxy is also a brighter galaxy is also a heavier galaxy, but there are some random variations around those relationships. I was basically studying the scatter around that and what I found is that previously, people had been underestimating this diversity of galaxies; there is more variety than what we expected before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stone\u2019s code has helped to highlight this diversity of galaxies and is being used by many other researchers around the globe in places such as Australia, China, and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the course of his Ph.D. program, Stone ran the Queen\u2019s University Observatory and once a month, hosted open houses with up to 100 attendees, which included access to the university telescope and a professor or graduate student guest speaker. Stone also hosted a podcast called \u201cQueen\u2019s Observatory Fast Radio Bursts,\u201d which consisted of orations on a variety of astronomy topics and discussions with various faculty members and graduate students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After his four years of research as a Ph.D. candidate at Queen\u2019s University, Stone had to defend his Ph.D. in order to be granted the official title. To do this, Stone put together a thesis, which he sent to his supervisor, Professor Stephan\u00e9 Courteau, and other scientists for peer review. On July 28, this team gathered for<br>Stone\u2019s Ph.D. defense, which consisted of an initial presentation, followed by a lengthy questioning. The peer review team then took a vote on whether or not Stone successfully defended his research to be granted a Ph.D. and as it turned out, he most certainly did.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/08\/Stone-Family-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-118089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/08\/Stone-Family-630x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/08\/rFweXuEE-Stone-Family-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/08\/Stone-Family-750x1000.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/08\/Stone-Family-630x840.jpeg 630w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/08\/Stone-Family.jpeg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Proud family: Bryan, Bob, and Tracey Stone pause for a photo at Queen&#8217;s after Connor successfully defended his Ph.D.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>After years of schooling and research, Stone expressed that the experience of defending his Ph.D. was an intellectual awakening of his academic potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was quite a realization for me, I went into the defense process thinking of it as a test, it really is set up as a test of whether or not you\u2019ve done the work, but what I realized towards the end is that it was actually a really incredible learning experience for me,\u201d Stone says. \u201cI learned a lot about my own work and how I can take it further and make it an impactful part of the [scientific] community. So I was super happy and relieved but also I felt like I had learned a lot from the whole process on how to be a better scientist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with many professions, a researcher\u2019s job is never done and Stone is ready for new endeavours. This September, Stone will be working with a research team in Montreal through a program called Post Doc, which is a training-focused position for those who have successfully obtained a doctorate. From there, he aims to continue his research and build his portfolio to become known to the global scientific community and work toward becoming a professor at Queen\u2019s University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve really enjoyed my time here [at Queen\u2019s] and I think that if I could come back as a professor, that would be perfect,\u201d he says. \u201cI got to do so much more than just research when I was here, most of our time is devoted to learning in one way or another. It\u2019s not just about our own research explicitly but we invite researchers from all around the world to come and give presentations about all different aspects of astronomy. One of the things I love about galaxy research is that you\u2019re a little bit connected with everything, I get connected with all sorts of other fields of astronomy, and I get to learn so much.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Stone\u2019s background and research, visit connorjstone.com<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Successfully obtaining a Ph.D. is a rare academic achievement and one that deserves to be celebrated.
