Who is Daphne Stam?

摘要

Daphne Stam (1969) studied physics at VU University Amsterdam. During her PhD research with KNMI and the university's department of planetary atmospheres she focussed on the diffusion of sunlight in the earths atmosphere. As a postdoc at Cornell University in the United States, she studied clouds in the atmospheres of Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Back in the Netherlands, she applied her knowledge of light diffusion and polarization to exoplanets, with the help of a Veni and then a Vidi scholarship. She started this research at the University of Amsterdam, then moved on to SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research, and finally joined TU Delft in early 2013.
