Model-Independent Approaches to Integrating 21-cm and JWST Data from the Epoch of Reionization

This conference talk explores model-independent approaches to integrating 21-cm and JWST data, presented by Girish Kulkarni from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delivered as part of the "Radio Cosmology and Continuum Observations in the SKA Era: A Synergic View" program, the 28-minute presentation contributes to discussions about the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope, which will begin operations in 2027. Learn about innovative analysis techniques that bridge radio cosmology and continuum science, particularly focusing on how data from different observational platforms can be integrated without relying on specific models. The talk is part of a broader two-week program bringing together international experts to address challenges in radio astronomy, foster collaboration, and train the next generation of researchers through lectures, demonstrations, and discussions on modeling, simulations, observations, data calibration, imaging, and statistical inference.
