In our "Hello, Astrophysicist!" segment, we interact with some of the finest Astrophysicists and talk about lots of exciting and informative stuff. In the first episode, we featured Prof. Debarati Chatterjee, a theoretical Astrophysicist, Associate Professor at IUCAA, and the Chairperson of LIGO-India Outreach.
Her research focuses on Compact Objects, specifically Neutron Stars, and she tries to understand the mysterious behavior of these celestial objects that are a source of Gravitational Waves.
In this episode, we had a chat about her research, early Life, challenges she had to face as a woman in STEM, and lots of other science stuff. If you missed a chance to participate, don't worry because you can also ask your questions to our future guests featured in this segment by participating in the Q/A session on Instagram (IG| @astrophysicast).
