Camilla Danielski
Dr. Camilla Danielski is an Italian–Brazilian astrophysicist based at the University of Valencia in Spain. She serves as the Science Coordinator for the Stellar Characterisation Working Group of the ESA Ariel mission consortium and co-leads the development of the planetary-detection science case, via gravitational-wave astronomy, within the ESA LISA mission. Her research is focused on the long-term evolution of planetary systems, from their formation till the last moments of their life, in the framework of Galactic environment and evolution. Dr. Danielski has given dozens of invited lectures and talks, and numerous seminars on the science of exoplanets.
