Chiara Mingarelli is an Italian-Canadian

astrophysicist who researches gravitational waves. She is an assistant professor of physics at Yale University since 2023, and previously an assistant professor at the University of Connecticut
(2020–2023). She is also a science writer and communicator.

Education

Mingarelli grew up in Ottawa, Canada. She completed a bachelor's degree in mathematics and physics from Carleton University, Canada, in 2006.[1] She moved to the University of Bologna to study for a master's in Astrophysics and Cosmology, which she achieved in 2009.[1] Mingarelli's PhD thesis "Gravitational Wave Astrophysics with Pulsar Timing Arrays", was selected by Springer Nature as an Outstanding PhD thesis in 2016.[2][3] She earned her PhD at the University of Birmingham with Alberto Vecchio in 2014.[4][5]

Research

Mingarelli is a gravitational wave astrophysicist attempting to understand the merging of supermassive black holes.

nanohertz gravitational waves. After completing her PhD, Mingarelli was awarded a European Union Marie Curie International Fellowship, which she brought to the California Institute of Technology.[1] There she continued to work on gravitational waves.[8] At Caltech she taught students in the Gravitational Wave Astrophysics school about Pulsar Timing Arrays.[9] Mingarelli spent the return phase of the Marie Curie Fellowship at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy.[1] She is regularly an invited speaker at scientific conferences.[10][11]

Public engagements

Mingarelli appeared on

Nautilus, The Wall Street Journal, Gizmodo, Wired and the New Scientist.[27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] Mingarelli maintains a social media presence on sites such as Twitter, where she is an advocate for "science, coffee and girl power".[36]
