Manuela Campanelli is a distinguished professor of astrophysics of the Rochester Institute of Technology.[1] She also holds the John Vouros endowed professorship at RIT and is the director of its Center for Computational Relativity and Gravitation.[2][3] Her work focuses on the astrophysics of merging black holes and neutron stars, which are powerful sources of gravitational waves, electromagnetic radiation and relativistic jets. This research is central to the fields of relativistic astrophysics and gravitational-wave astronomy.
She is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (2009),[4] a Fellow of International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation Fellowship (2019),[5] and a recipient of the Richard A. Isaacson award in Gravitational-Wave Science of the APS (2024).[6]
