Jacqueline Hodge is an Associate Professor at the Leiden Observatory, the oldest university observatory in operation today. She specializes in studying the formation and evolution of distant galaxies through cosmic time using advanced observational techniques.
- Education: B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Physics from the University of California, followed by a PhD in Physics from the same institution.
Her research focuses on:
- Revealing dust-obscured star formation in early galaxies using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
- Tracing the cosmic star formation history via radio observations with facilities like the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA).
- Investigating molecular gas reservoirs in high-redshift galaxies, a critical fuel for star formation.
- High-resolution imaging of galaxy structures (e.g., spiral arms, bars) using the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA).
She leads the JWST Cycle 1 GO program and co-leads the COSMOS-XS ultra-deep radio survey. Her group’s work has received significant media attention, including discoveries of galactic rotation at z=6.8 and oxygen emission in z=6 galaxies.
Scientific Awards
- Vidi grant from the Dutch Research Council (NWO)
She actively mentors PhD students working on galaxy evolution and observational astronomy projects.
