Karen Masters (nascida em 1979) é uma astrofísica e professora associada de astrofísica no Haverford College, Pensilvânia, Estados Unidos, explorando a formação de galáxias. Ela também é cientista do projeto de ciência cidadã Galaxy Zoo e usa as classificações para estudar a evolução das galáxias.

Educação

Karen Masters nasceu em Birmingham, na Inglaterra, e frequentou o King Edward VI College, em Nuneaton.[1] Ela completou um bacharelado em Física na Universidade de Oxford, em 2000.[2] Ela recebeu um PhD em Astronomia pela Cornell University, em 2005, com Tese intitulada "Fluxos de galáxias dentro e ao redor do superaglomerado local", sob a supervisão de Martha Haynes e de Riccardo Giovanelli.[3]

Pesquisa

Em 2005, Karen Masters mudou-se para a Universidade de Harvard para trabalhar como pesquisadora de pós-doutorado com John Huchra em um projeto para fazer o mapa mais completo do Universo local.[4] Karen "revelou o mapa 3-D mais completo do universo local (a uma distância de 380 milhões de anos-luz) já criado",[5] em 2011, na 218ª reunião da Sociedade Astronômica Americana. O mapa foi criado usando dados do observatório Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS).

Ela se mudou para o Instituto de Cosmologia e Gravitação, da Universidade de Portsmouth, na Inglaterra, em outubro de 2008.[1] Ela foi nomeada bolsista da Fundação Gruber IAU, em 2008.[6] Em 2010, Karen recebeu uma bolsa Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship, para um projeto intitulado "As barras matam galáxias espirais?".[7] Ela foi promovida a professora sênior em 2014 e a professora associada em 2015.[8] Ela tem trabalhado em astronomia extragaláctica e, em 2018, foi nomeada professora associada no Haverford College, na Pensilvânia.[9]

Karen Masters é a porta-voz do projeto Sloan Digital Sky Survey.[10]

Engajamento público

Karen Masters coordena os cientistas pesquisadores do Galaxy Zoo, um projeto de classificação de galáxias colaborativo.[2] Ela apareceu no BBC Sky At Night.[11]

Ela coordenou a página "Ela é uma astrônoma do Galaxy Zoo", reunindo histórias de mulheres da astronomia.[12] Em 2014, Karen Masters ganhou o Prêmio Mulheres do Futuro pela Ciência.[13][14] Naquele mesmo ano, ela foi listada como uma das 100 mulheres mais inspiradoras do mundo pela BBC.[15]
