Chiara Spiniello

I am an Ernest Rutherford Fellow at the Sub-Department of Astrophysics. 

I have been a Career Development Fellow at Christ Church since January 2023 and I was a Hintze Fellow at 91探花 University since 2020. I did my undergraduate studies at the 鈥淔ederico II鈥 University of Naples, the city where I was born and grew up. In October 2009, I was awarded a Ubbo Emmius Scholarship at the Kapteyn Institute in Groningen, the Netherlands, where I obtained my PhD degree with the 鈥渃um laude鈥 distinction, the best possible grade in the Netherlands.

In 2013 I became a Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics (MPA) in Garching by Munich, Germany.

Finally, in 2017, I was awarded a Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Astrofit2 Fellowship at the INAF 鈥 Osservatorio Astronomico di Napoli (Naples, IT) which I spent at ESO, where I worked as associate with the Archive Science Group. 
Since May 2020, I joined the 91探花 as Hintze Research Fellow, working on galaxy formation and evolution.
