Snežana Stanimirović ia a Serbian-American radio astronomer whose research focuses on the interstellar medium and intergalactic medium, including neutral hydrogen clouds[1] and the production of cosmic dust by supernovae.[2] She is a professor of astronomy at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.[3]

She is also the author of a comic strip aimed at encouraging children to become scientists, Galaxy Scouts: Space-Ventures with Stella and Riley.[4][5]

Education and career

[edit]

Stanimirović is originally from Kruševac, now in Serbia, moved to Surdulica as a child,[1] and was a high school student at the Jovan Skerlić Gymnasium in Vladičin Han.[6] Her work in astronomy began with high school research participation in research at the Petnica Science Center.[1][4] She graduated with honors in mathematics and astronomy from the University of Belgrade in 1995, and then went to Western Sydney University in Australia for doctoral study in astrophysics, completing her Ph.D. in 2000.[7]

After postdoctoral research working for Cornell University at the Arecibo Observatory from 1999 to 2002, and then at the University of California, Berkeley from 2002 to 2006, she became an assistant professor of astronomy at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2006. She was tenured as an associate professor in 2011 and promoted to full professor in 2015.[7]

[edit]

Stanimirović was named as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2016, "for pioneering radio studies of interstellar gas in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Cloud and improving understanding of transitions between phases and the role of interstellar turbulence".[8] She received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2019.[1]
