Was awarded seven nights on the McDonald Observatory's Harlen J. Smith telescope to observe the diffuse spiral galaxy SDSS J010223.55+203334.6. This galaxy is suspected to have interacted with another galaxy which Jason published on several years ago, and these measurements will allow Jason to confirm/refute this hypothesis.

Was awarded 4 hours on the AstroSat UV space telescope to observe five diffuse spiral galaxies. UV emission is typically associated with young groups of stars, and these measurements will help Jason and his collaboration constrain the formation histories of these galaxies.
