The Oberlin College Pulsar Lab is located in the basement of the Wright Physics building, at 110 North Professor Street.  Professor Stinebring does his research here year-round with students with varying degrees of computer proficiency during the summer.  Current research at the pulsar lab involves pulsar scintillation in the interstellar medium.  For the curious, we offer What is a Pulsar?  For a good introduction to radio astronomy in general, look here at NASA.  Any questions or comments, please feel free to contact the lab at dan@physics.oberlin.edu
            Thanks for visiting!
