Hi, I am Soon Jie Chong though also known as Max. I currently work towards a PhD in Astrophysics. I first got into EA through a local climate change talk in 2018 and climate change is still a concern to me till this day, alongside with nuclear security and most importantly, exploring research on cosmic existential risk as the focus of my career.
I have finally join the forum after knowing about its existence for years - look forward to the discussions!
I am currently looking to work on cosmic threats so this is a very useful read!
Just a note that depending on the outcome of the crisis of cosmology, the Universe might collapse on itself, instead of the heat death. Nothing is certain at this point!
