Congratulations to Marion Zannese on winning the Prix Jeunes Talents France For Women In Science 2024 from the L'Oréal-UNESCO Foundation!

Marion Zannese, who defended her thesis on 26 September entitled ‘High excitation of molecules in irradiated regions of star and planetary formation observed with the James Webb Space Telescope’, under the supervision of Émilie Habart and Benoit Tabone, is now a post-doctoral fellow at the IAS, where she will continue her work on the study of irradiated regions of star and planetary formation with the JWST.

An international research team involving scientists from IAS and other laboratories has just revealed the chemical composition of a disk of matter rotating around a young star, where new planets are forming. The results reveal the largest number of carbon-containing molecules observed to date in such a disk, and have implications for the potential composition of planets that could form around this star. These results, published in the journal Science, were obtained as part of the MIRI instrument's guaranteed time program, developed by a consortium of laboratories in Europe and the USA and involving the IAS.
