Yasna Órdenes-Briceño

I am a postdoctoral researcher in astrophysics, funded by the joint ESO committee. I work alongside Professor Evelyn Johnston. I study the baryonic component of galaxies with different sizes and morphologies in the Local Universe and located in different environments: groups or clusters of galaxies Current Position: Postdoctoral researcher Projects: I focus on the properties …

Regis Cartier

I am a postdoctoral researcher working on time domain research and mainly focused on the study of Supernovae and their progenitors. Current Position: Postdoctoral fellow Projects: Study observations of SNe to understand their explosion mechanism and their progenitors. I’m also interested in the use of SNe Ia as distance indicators and to determine the value …

Meghana Killi

I am a CATA postdoctoral researcher studying distant galaxies and black holes that lived when the Universe was only a billion years old. Current position: Postdoctoral researcher Projects I use the ALMA-CRISTAL survey to understand the dust properties of typical galaxies at high-redshift. I also study the mysterious population of AGN-galaxy hybrid objects known as …
