As a post-baccalaureate experience between my undergraduate and graduate degrees, I worked as a telescope operator and researcher for Project EDEN. EDEN is a program to search for transiting Earth-sized planet around ultracool M dwarfs that would be good targets for further characterization with JWST but are unlikely to be detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). While no planets have been discovered by the survey, the project has resulted in useful limits for many otherwise untargeted stars. The observations also have provided observations of flares on ultracool dwarfs at a much higher temporal cadence than is achieved by TESS or Kepler.
In 2020, I published initial results from the survey.
