Eleonora Parlanti

Eleonora Parlanti is a scientist at Scuola Normale Superiore, known for her contributions to astrophysics, particularly in the study of distant galaxies. She was recently in the news for her role in the discovery of oxygen in the ancient galaxy JADES-GS-z14-0, which is the farthest galaxy ever observed, with light that took approximately 13.4 billion years to reach Earth. This discovery has profound implications for our understanding of galaxy formation in the early universe.
