Dr Smitha Subramanian

I am a Humboldt Fellow at the AIP and an Associate Professor at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), Bangalore, India. The main aim of my research is to understand the effect of  external and internal factors on the evolution of nearby galaxies. My research at AIP involves the study of Magellanic Clouds to understand the effect of low-mass galaxy interactions on their structural and kinematical properties. I am a team member of the VISTA survey of the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) and the One Thousand and One Magellanic Cloud Fields (1001MC) survey within the 4MOST consortium.
