Suchitra Narayanan

Suchitra Narayanan is an NSF Fellow from University of Hawaii studying the organosulfur chemistry in the birthplaces of planets. She characterizes the formation pathways of complex sulfur organics using laboratory experiments and combines them with observations to understand sulfur chemistry in protostars and protoplanetary disks. She is an author for Astrobites and has created the new climate change committee, starting with her recent article "The 'Pale Blue Dot' Blues” where she illustrates how astrophysics and planetary sciences are being used to further our understanding of Earth.
