Greetings! My name is Elizabeth Noonan. After spending four exciting years in the insurance industry I decided to go back to school and do something with my life that I would be proud to tell my children. So, I moved to Montana....then I waited tables for a while...but then I went back to school and got my B.S. in physics. This Fall (1999) I am starting my first year of graduate school.

I have spent the last year working in the MSU Solar Physics Group under the tutelage of Dr. Dana Longcope . My research involves self-organized criticality models for solar flares. I presented a research poster at 194th Meeting of the AAS in June, 1999. In fact, I even got an SPD Studentship Award to help pay for the trip.

This year I have an RA with Dr. Longcope and we are currently working on a paper presenting our results.
