A center dedicated to the development of artificial intelligence to enable next generation astrophysics at the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian. AstroAI strives to bring experts in artificial intelligence together with scientists to tackle the most exciting and challenging problems in astrophysics. By facilitating interdisciplinary collaborations and drawing on the expertise of the Smithsonian, Harvard and Boston area science community, we hope to advance our understanding of the universe and drive forward technology that will revolutionize and accelerate scientific discovery at the CfA.
Congratulations to AstroAI Director Cecilia Garraffo!
Dr. Cecilia Garraffo, the founding director of AstroAI, has received a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE).
Dr. Garraffo has made major advances in spin-down of stars, angular momentum evolution, and space weather around exoplanets. Her accomplishments include artificial intelligence applications, a SmallSat concept, and a post-baccalaureate program in astrophysics.
PECASE is the highest honor bestowed by the U.S. government on outstanding scientists and engineers who are beginning their independent research careers and show exceptional promise for leadership in science and technology.
The 2025 AstroAI Workshop will be July 7-11 at the CfA!
