Hi! I'm Angelique,
an astronomer who characterises worlds beyond our solar system.

My current research at MPIA targets sub-Neptunes,
the most common class of plantes known today.

Research

I'm excited to show you some of my research projects!
Most recently, I explore the atmospheres of sub-Neptunes with data from the HST SPACE Program.
My former work investigates the chemistry in star-forming regions and the effect of stellar feedback on star formation.
Please, take a look around!
