Researchers
PhD student, working with Roberto Assef -focussing on understanding the role of AGN in galaxy evolution through high-redshift quasars and Lyman Break Galaxies.
Associate Professor and Director of YEMS, whose main research revolves around detecting and characterizing exoplanets with high-contrast imaging.
PhD student, working with Lucas Cieza and Alice Zurlo at UDP, and currently at ESO, exploring the evolution of protoplanetary disks and characterization of young substellar companions.
PhD student, working with Manuel Aravena, interested in understanding the properties of high-redshift galaxies and their environment, and how they influence galaxy evolution.
Assistant Professor, whose primary focus is the characterization of primitive small bodies like asteroids and comets, using diverse observing techniques.
Assistant Professor, working in extra-galactic astrophysics, focussing on very luminous active galactic nuclei - quasars - in the epoch of reionization.
Postdoctoral researcher working on the characterisation of exoplanet atmospheres, primarily studying their chemical compositions using high-resolution spectrographs on large ground-based telescopes.
Postdoctoral researcher, interested in the co-evolution of galaxies and AGN, particularly in luminous Hot-DOGs, radio galaxies, and Lyman Break Galaxies.
PhD student, working with José Prieto, interested in studying luminous Core Collapse Supernovae and in classifying transients.
Assistant Professor, whose research focusses on understanding the formation and evolution of nearby galaxies, and in understanding morphological transformations of their components.
PhD student, working in Stellar and Galactic astrophysics - particularly in chemically tagging accreted stars in the solar neighborhood, and studying planet formation theories.
PhD student working with Lucas Cieza, interested in studying properties of dust in protoplanetary and debris disks at the Cosmic Dust Laboratory.
Admin Team
Administrative Coordinator of research and projects - whose role involves welcoming new PhD students and Postdoctoral Researchers, and assisting with visa and paperwork for the international community at IEA.
Public Administrator - whose role centers around helping members in the IEA with University bureaucracy and paperwork - with a strong affinity for working in environments fostering diversity.
Outreach
Outreach coordinator at the IEA - interested in developing inclusive astronomy projects, and involved in interdisciplinary networks like "Astronomía Inclusiva" to promote accessibility in learning.
Former Members
Former CATA Postdoctoral Fellow (PUC-UDP), whose research revolved around multiphase AGN-driven outflows and the characterization of their hosts.
Former PhD student at IEA and current Postdoctoral researcher at Texas A&M University - focussing on galaxy evolution in the first half of the universe's history.
FONDECYT Postdoctoral fellow, working on Changing-look AGN, obscuration properties of AGN, and X-ray polarization.
Former ESO Research Postdoctoral Fellow, who was based at the IEA in the last year of the fellowship program, focussing on the most massive galaxies from a multiwavelength perspective.
Former PhD student and current USACH-UDP Postdoctoral Researcher, whose research focusses on planet formation and protoplanetary disks using sub-mm observations.
