Jessica M. Chapman

I retired in late 2016 and am now an honorary Fellow at CSIRO Astronomy and Space Science in Sydney (CASS). My research expertise is primarily in astrophysical masers and the late stages of stellar evolution. I have also spent many years managing and supporting the operations of the Australia Telescope National Facility for radio astronomy and have led the development of several user-friendly data archives and applications. From 2011 to 2016 I was the CASS Project Leader for a large project to build the CSIRO ASKAP Science Data Archive (known as CASDA). This archive has the capacity to hold Petabytes of radio astronomy data from the Australian SKA Pathfinder array in Western Australia. The data are held at the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre in Perth and are openly available.
