Alice S. Booth

Alice Booth is a Clay Fellow whose research revolves around unravelling the chemical makeup of planet-forming disks. Alice uses high-sensitivity observations taken with ALMA to map the distribution of different molecular species in nearby disks. Their work has detected some of the most complex organic molecules in disks and is key in following the journey of volatiles from dark clouds to planets and comets. Alice obtained their PhD from the University of Leeds in 2020 and then was a postdoctoral researcher at Leiden Observatory until Fall 2023.
