Senior🎓
Top SchoolAntonella Palmese is an assistant professor and observational cosmologist with 9 years of experience leveraging large photometric and spectroscopic surveys to study gravitational-wave sources and astronomical transients. She has led follow-up efforts with DECam and contributed to DESI science while probing electromagnetic counterparts to LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA events and preparing for LISA detections. A former NASA Einstein Fellow at UC Berkeley and a longtime researcher at Fermilab, she blends rapid transient response expertise with deep survey-driven cosmology. Trained in Italy and the UK, she combines precision data analysis with instrument-scale collaboration experience and a knack for anticipating multi-messenger discoveries a decade before they arrive.
